Hey Adnan, I've been following this project since almost a year and now it's part of my basic toolbox. I would love to help you maintain it with no financial expectations of course, the thing is that I'm just a real newbie with a lot of interest in Linux, Open Source and related matters. Basically, my knowledge is limited but my passion for improving and learning is huge.
Maybe I could help you with very basic tasks and learn along the way until I understand more advanced stuff.
Let me know if my help is needed. If not, let me know what should I study in order to learn whatever it's needed to help you with this project and in the future come back to you.
Hugs and thanks a lot for the immense contribution to the foss world.

Hey@cristian158, thank you for your kind words and of course your help is needed. Also, participating in open source projects is a great way to learn new things 🙂

Most help would be needed with going through existing/new issues and answering questions in discussion section. Also having someone totest would be great, same thing goes for reviewing existing/new pull requests. Of course finally it would be to code some of the requested features and fixes.

Let's start with these things and then we can take it from there:

• Subscribe to get all notifications related to auto-cpufreq ("Notifications" button).
• Get fully acquainted withauto-cpufreq and it's features (README.md).
• Thoroughly inspect source code, fromauto-cpufreq-installer tocore.py andauto-cpufreq and newly power_helper.py
• Go throughexisting issues and feature requests. There's a lot of issues which can be triaged and/or are low hanging fruit which can be picked up and fixed. A lot of them can also be closed, either to being open for too long (no activity) or might've been fixed by one of thereleases. I think looking into these is the best way to get started, as you'll see what the issues/requests are and you'll get acquainted with code if you haven't yet by this point. The way you handle these will also give me a great overview on how you're doing.
• Of course, if you pick up anything from issues, create a Pull request. Take a look at howmerged pull requests look like and what it took to get them to that stage. For example311 and314 are great examples how you could help with review and testing process (what was done by "bobslept" user in this case).
• Also take a look atdiscussions and provide answers on what's being asked or if some of it can be linked to new issues.

After you get hang of these things, then let's talk about giving you contributor permissions so you can start labeling issues and even merging PR's without requiring anything from my side.

In the meantime, please let me know if you have any questions and/or comments!

Thank you so much for your answer!
Like I said, my knowledge is very limited so I won't be able to help any time soon but with all these suggestions I can now focus my study.
I follow you here and on twitter so we keep in touch

Thanks again!!

Hi
I have absolutely no experience with this, but I do know python and am willing to help since I now have the summer off. This program single-handedly made the battery of my laptop last 1 hour and 50 minutes to 5 hours, so I would love to contribute back and help this epic project. I have most of the summer off unless I get an internship so I can do whatever.

Those interested in contributing to this project, thing you could help with most is to simply start going throughinflux of new/existing issues which are reported and triaging them, as a lot of them are pointing to existing issue. Some of them are even including fixes which could easily be picked up and added to the code. Other easy start would just to be to answer questions asked inDiscussion section.

That would be the easiest way to start, followed byrest of my suggestions.

Hello,
so i would be interested to be a developer in this project. I am trying my best to make it better. I am using the software since a few months and would love to help developing it. I also think that i would learn a lot for my live here.

I have applied to this year's GSoC; if I do not get selected, I may work on the Gnome extension of this project. It will be enjoyable to implement. I have mainly skills related to Rust and a little bit of Python, and I have also been in the development of a Fractal project of Gnome. Still, do you recommend me something I can start learning?

This project has been excellent. I did wonder though, would it benefit BSDs to have a tool like this? Or are they already lean enough on their own?

I would bet that the 2nd question has some truth, the only thing being, it could be an advantage at some point.

This isn't a huge issue, as of now, but it was a thought.

Discord server is no longer working, could you give another link to the server. I would like to contribute to this repository.

Hello,
I'm not an expert in Linux or even python, but I'm not a beginner either. I'd like to be able to do my bit and contribute to various projects to improve the use of Linux.

For those interested in contributing to this project,there're are currently20 feature requests. I would advise you to go through these and see if there are any features you would also like to have yourself, as they could be interesting to work on.

Currently there are at least 2 issues, created over 3 years ago which even havecode snippets that simply need to be turned into PR's, and they would solve numerous other issues that are linked to them. Example:

• Fedora Silverblue 39 Installation Fails #601
• System incredibly slow after kernel update #464
