Hi everyone, we at Public Lab are very welcoming to contributors especially open source newcomers and people from underrepresented groups. Contributing to Open-Source can be overwhelming especially for first-timers and that's why we created this issue to make it easier for you to contribute.
We have issues that we call FTOs(First Timers Only) that are meant for first-timers only. These issues give you a step-by-step guide on how to contribute and what files need to be changed. You don't have to know any programming language to work on these issues. These issues are designed to help you learn our workflow here at Public Lab.
How Do I Get an FTO Issue?
Please leave a comment below and we'll add your name to the list. If you're an Outreachy or GSOC applicant, please tell us and we'll give you priority.
We'll tag you when there's an issue for you to work and you have 24 hours to claim it. If you're stuck, please feel free to reach out and ask for help in our community chat.
How To Claim an FTO?
Unless the issue is marked as reserved for someone, you can just say "I'd like to try this!" and then you've claimed it - no need to wait for someone to assign it to you. Just be sure you link your pull request (PR) to this issue so we can see where your solution is.
And open one early if possible - even before you've completed it with additional commits - and others can help you figure out any issues you may face.
If the issue was reserved for you, please claim it within 24 hours.

I've worked on an FTO, what next?
Congratulations 🎉, you've made your first Public Lab Contribution. We always encourage contributors to create FTOs for others or look out for issues with the bug /help wanted tags.
If you'd like to create an FTO for someone else, you can look through the repo or publiclab.org for issues that can be solved in a few lines. When you've found an issue for a first-timer to work on, click the New Issue button and use the issue template named First Timers Only issue.
If you have any trouble, feel free to reach out to us on our community chat and we'll do our best to help you resolve it. Thank you 🎈

Hi Tilda! I've contributed to an issue and was wondering how I would create an issue for others to work on?
Hi @cmcgee0308, you can start by identifying a simple issue that a first-timer could fix. You can take a look at other FTOs for inspiration
first-timers-only
When you've found an issue for a first-timer to work on, click the New Issue button and use the issue template named First Timers Only issue.
Thanks!!
