Contribute

The DVTk project has brought a great set of libraries that have been used to create a lot of powerful applications. But the real potential of the project will only be reached if people contribute to the project by sharing their creativity and work. You can contribute to the project in many ways:

  • Write tutorials and howtos.
  • Share scripts you have created.
  • Share DVTk core based applications that you have created.
  • Help solving PRs and CRs from the Ticket System. 
  • Help verifying PRs and CRs from the Ticket System that have been solved.
  • Co-develop with the Core Team.
  • Anything else that can help the DVTk project and it's community, but we haven't thought about :)

If you want to contribute or like to discuss it you can send an e-mail to info@dvtk.org. We can help you by providing you with specific support and publishing or linking to your contribution.
