🤝 Contributing

We are always looking for contributors of all skill levels! If you're looking to ease your way into the project, try out a good first issue.

High Priority Needs

• 👩‍💼 Product Manager
  • We have a GitHub Project and many unorganized/unprioritized features, as well as ideas that haven't yet been made into issues. Starship needs someone to own the product direction!
• 👩‍🎨 Designer
  • Like making eye-catching websites? Excellent! We are looking to create a beautiful landing page showing off Starship in all its glory. Helping design for Starship's brand is a great opportunity to try out new ideas!
• 👩‍💻 Rust Developer
  • There is a lot of low-hanging fruit when it comes to writing idiomatic Rust, designing effective Rust architecture, performance optimizations, cross-platform build optimizations, and more! I (@matchai) am a beginner to Rust. Come point us in the right direction!
