Hi devs,

I am a new developer here. I’m eager to contribute to the community that has been a cornerstone of my professional growth. I’m seeking guidance from experienced developers who can mentor me for a smooth journey into open-source contributions.

Welcome!

The general advice I see on here is to begin with The Contributing Guide.  
[Contributing to Django | Django documentation | Django](https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/4.0/internals/contributing/)

Start with reading that, and then do reach out if you have questions.
