Avogadro has a very open and active development community. Currently there are more than 10 active developers and other various contributers.
Entry-Level Work
Avogadro maintains a list of bugs, feature requests, and other tasks
that are great for those interested in helping out, but are unsure where to begin. Programming oriented tasks that fall under this category can be found on the Sourceforge trackers with the prefix "JJ" (following the KDE convention for Junior Jobs). The full list is available here.
Even non-programmers can help out! There is a strong need for documentation, tutorials, context help, and translation:
- Write Tutorials for the Wiki
- Addition of context tooltips to tools, engines, misc GUI elements, etc.
- Find poorly documented classes from the API docs and ask about them: API
- Help translate Avogadro into your language: Localization
First Steps
If you are interesting in working on or with Avogadro please look at the Developer information that is available and subscribe to the avogadro-devel mailing list. Also, join the IRC channel (#avogadro on irc.freenode.net) and talk with other developers. For information on the internals of Avogadro and LibAvogadro, review the avogadro developer api.
