A good way to get started is of course to start using Guix(SD), and then
to contribute new packages.  The =E2=80=9CDefining Packages=E2=80=9D sectio=
n of the
manual should help get you started, and then people on #guix on IRC and
on the help-guix@gnu.org mailing list will be happy to help.

Our bug tracker at <https://bugs.gnu.org/guix> has some items explicitly
marked as =E2=80=9Ceasy=E2=80=9D (though probably too few of them), which y=
ou might
later want to look at.

Welcome, and happy hacking!  :-)

Ludo=E2=80=99.
