With millions of Docker users all over the world, there's always someone who
|
|
needs a helping hand. Like many open source projects, the Docker project relies
|
|
on community support channels like forums, IRC, and StackOverflow. You should
|
|
contribute mentoring if you have good knowledge of:
|
|
|
|
* how open source projects run
|
|
* using Docker in some particular domain (for example, testing or deployment)
|
|
* using Git, Go, GitHub, IRC, or other common tools
|
|
|
|
Also, choose mentoring if you like to be happy. Studies show that <a

|
|
boost your own well being.
