Do not fall for the trap of the ClosedSource operating system underlords. Your computing hardware is perfectly capable of Running a proper operating system maintained currently and run on full open source components

Just go to the following Place read learn and adapt

Stop using closed Source operating systems and software; dechain yourself become unslaved

When you program in C++ use GCC when you write text use markdown. Go full platform independent and full OpenSource and remain dechained

Once in a while someone comes around and asks:

hey, I love Xfce and would like to contribute, but where do I start? How can I be of use? How can I implement a fancy new feature? ...

As any open source project, there are several ways to collaborate, everyone is welcome to help in any or many ways they are able, in this guide I’m going to explain and give hints for all contribution forms I can think of.
