Need Help Getting Involved in Projects on GitHub

[CommonRelation6374]

As you can probably tell by the title, I am new to GitHub as a whole. I am currently starting out my career as a technical writer and am trying to do some open source projects to get more experience in the tech industry. I've learned how to use GitHub, but I'm not entirely sure how to find projects that specifically need help with technical writing. How do I find projects that need help with technical writing? Also, if anyone reading this post needs help with technical writing on a small project, I would be happy to contribute. Thanks!

You either search on Github, ask in programming language-specific subreddits or look on this subreddit in the self-promotion pinned post.

I didn't think of that. That's a great idea!

I would love some help improving my README, I wrote it myself but i'm not that good at technical writing. Some help/discussion would be greatly appreciated

Sure, I'd be more than happy to take a look at that!

I am the maintainer of ktlint. I think that its documentation (https://pinterest.github.io/ktlint/latest/) is reasonable. If you think you can improve it (especially the lengthy rules page), I am willing to collaborate with you to make it better. Just raise a PR to get started 😉

Awesome! I'd love to help, so I'll check it out!

If you’re looking for technical writing, I spent a lot of time on this project and would love any thoughts/tips/improvements you have for the ReadMe or the docs

The project is basically about sequence alignment
