    MDN Web Docs Contributors Needed
  • 0:03 - 0:05
    "MDN is the biggest resource on the
    Internet
  • 0:05 - 0:07
    for documentation of languages
  • 0:07 - 0:09
    that we use to write web code."
  • 0:09 - 0:11
    "It's a very big resource so keeping
  • 0:11 - 0:14
    up to date is quite a task
  • 0:14 - 0:17
    which is our main remit here on
    the MDN team at Mozilla."
  • 0:17 - 0:18
    "We need contributors
  • 0:18 - 0:21
    because the web is big complex
    technology and this
  • 0:21 - 0:23
    is not something a small isolated
    group can
  • 0:23 - 0:26
    do by themselves
    you can only
  • 0:26 - 0:28
    have it happen
    through collaboration
  • 0:28 - 0:31
    HoChan: "there are many ways we

    "MDN is open source

  • 0:38 - 0:40
    "contributing to open
    source projects
  • 0:40 - 0:42
    an opportunity for you to
    improve your ability
  • 0:42 - 0:44
    and also build your resume
  • 0:44 - 0:46
    build your experience
  • 0:46 - 0:50
    the good thing contributing to MDN for me
  • 0:50 - 0:53
    is it helps me to know many people
  • 0:53 - 0:57
    in MDN there are several
    ways to get involved
  • 0:57 - 0:58
    if you spot something that
  • 0:58 - 1:00
    you think could
    improve on a page
  • 1:00 - 1:02
    something to add a typo to fix
    anything
  • 1:02 - 1:03
    at all like that
  • 1:03 - 1:06
    you can scroll down to the bottom of
    the page and

    a problem with this page

    the content on Github
