We would especially like help with reviving projects that CC's engineering team does not have the time to actively work on (such as our WordPress plugin). We're also looking to improve our documentation and increase our automated test coverage across pretty much all our projects, so help with that would be greatly appreciated. Please follow our pull request guidelines when submitting code. If you are not familiar with GitHub or pull requests, here is an excellent guide to get started.
