WordPress is like a galaxy of evolving open source projects maintained by thousands of volunteers from across the world.<\/p>\n
We invite you to join us in contributing to the world’s most widely used publishing platform.\u00a0Share your expertise, your know-how, your knowledge, your imagination, and your experience.\u00a0<\/strong>Thanks to advancements in online communication, anyone can contribute to WordPress from anywhere in the world. But nothing beats working alongside contributors IRL (in real life)!<\/p>\n By participating at WordCamp Europe’s Contributor Day, you will have the chance to learn from new and experienced contributors alike. Contributor Day is special because it brings together contributors of all levels<\/strong> and everyone can benefit from each others’ advice and knowledge.<\/p>\n Whether you are a user, a prescriber, a designer, a marketer or a developer, we are all committed to supporting WordPress so that it can carry on powering our blogs, sites or applications in an ever more efficient and intuitive way.<\/p>\n During this day, you will have a choice of fields to get involved with.

That\u2019s the reason why we\u2019re very happy and excited to announce there will be specific JavaScript focused workshops during the WCEU 2017 Contributor Day!<\/strong><\/p>\n More details about the WCEU 2017 Contributor Day content and schedule is to follow.
