Maybe you’re a blogger or a writer, a designer or a marketer.
Maybe you build websites for your clients.

WordPress in short
WordPress is the most widely used and most popular platform for running websites in the world. It started as a blogging tool, but thanks to its philosophy of making website building and maintenance simple and accessible to everyone, it has grown to the point where it now powers 75 million websites.
Behind its success stands a great idea and a visionary strategy. Its stability and technical qualities have rightfully made it popular. Countless themes and plugins make working with it easier and more accessible to all. The statistics confirm this, and the numbers are often so big they look like a printing mistake.
The strength of WordPress
The greatest strength of WordPress is the people!
The community grows day by day, constantly contributing to the platform’s development, as well as to the values WordPress represents. Exchanging knowledge and experience is a natural part of the community. That’s why for every problem you’ll easily and quickly find a solution.
The ideal way to get involved and give back is Contributor Day. It’s a contribution to the global WordPress project, not just the software. You can try your hand in many different areas, including marketing, community, translation, development, design, documentation, support, accessibility…
Who can take part in Contributor Day?
Everyone is welcome, regardless of knowledge or experience. There are many ways to contribute. Contributor Day is the perfect chance to start your journey of giving back to the WordPress community. According to your personal interests and skills, you can join one of the teams. Maybe several areas will attract you and make your choice harder. Pick one, and at the next camp you’ll be able to try yourself in another field.
I’m a beginner, what am I doing here?
Everyone who is new to WordPress or to events like this has a different perspective than those who are experienced. That fresh look can provide valuable feedback on what’s been done so far, from a newcomer’s point of view.
On the other hand, spending time with seasoned professionals is extremely valuable for beginners. In a short time, under their mentorship, you can learn how WordPress and Contributor Day work and make your very first contribution to this ecosystem. You’ll also get to see a projection of yourself in the future, which is priceless for your motivation.
