One way to contribute is by using Guix as a package manager on top of an
existing GNU/Linux distribution and to report bugs.  Another way is to
try to package up missing free software that you would like to be
available through Guix.  Writing package specifications is not very
difficult and requires hardly any programming experience at all.

Be sure to visit the IRC channel #guix on freenode to get help in
getting started.
