Have you ever given a thought about what percentage of the people and companies who are building their business on top of WordPress give back to the project? And why that percentage is so tiny?

Contributing to WordPress seems a foreign territory to most people. The main reason for that is that for a very long time „Contributing to WordPress“ has meant writing code.

This talk will introduce the different aspects of the WordPress project, the different teams on make.wordpress.org and will hopefully convince everyone that you don’t need to write a single line of code to be an active WordPress contributor. It will show there is a way for everyone who has a spare hour to help and have an impact on the future of WordPress. It will also list the ways contributing can be highly beneficial for a business or an individual.

Audience: Advanced Users
