Right now, the most important thing I need is for people to try py5 and provide feedback.
– so, you can start with that right away! You can log issues and get involved in discussions on the project’s GitHub pages.
For help with py5 sketches, I think it’s okay to post questions here on discourse.processing.org. The admins can even set up a separate py5 category if things grow unwieldy (there’s already one for p5py).

It would also be great if someone was willing to help write tutorials and example code. Right now, that area of the documentation is seriously lacking. I could also use help with the Windows and OSX specific GUI problems listed on Github. In particular, the Special Notes for Mac Users describes numerous problems with Mac computers. I do all of my development work on Linux and know very little about platform-specific GUI programming. All of the bugs I’d like help with are listed on Github with the help wanted tag.
To help out here, you’ll need to familiarise yourself with the workings of GitHub first:
- If you’re contributing to documentation, it’s this repo: https://github.com/hx2A/py5website
- For the py5 source, it’s this repo: https://github.com/hx2A/py5generator
- Build process - http://py5.ixora.io/tutorials/build-process/
I’m not familiar enough with the project’s source code to provide any further advice about modifying it.
