We're opening up this day to everyone who wants to contribute to WordPress. It doesn't matter if you are an experienced contributor or if you are a first-timer. Everyone can join this day!
Apart from contributing to WordPress, this day allows you to make new connections and get to know many Yoasters! 🥳
⏰ When and where?
When?

🤔 Hmm, but I still don’t know how I can contribute…
Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered! The Support break-out room will be also used as a help desk. You may join this desk at any time and somebody will be there to help you figure out how you can contribute, tell you more about what the Contributor day is and answer other questions.
🙌 Okay, I’m in! What should I do now?
Registration has ended! We hope to see you on our next Contributor day! 🥳
