5.2. Documentation & Tutorials

You don't need to be a programmer to help out with documentation. If you are using deegree in any way you may be just the right person for improving the docs. You don't need to be a genius with words either. Basic language skills will do just fine.

You can help the deegree project, if ...

  • you feel like writing new documentation or
  • you want to improve existing docs or
  • you feel like writing new tutorials or
  • you are a native speaker and want to eliminate spelling mistakes and bad grammar
  • you want to translate parts of deegree to your own language.

If any of the above applies to you, please contact the users mailing list or the PSC or TMC (details above). Then we can sort out which part you would like to help out with.

5.3. Code

If you feel like contributing to the deegree project as a developer, please refer to StructuresAndProcedures#Committers or contact the developers mailing list or the TMC (see details above).
