General Instructions

If you want to modify content or add blog articles, you can do so in a number of ways:

• Easy Mode: Create an issue with suggested changes (a maintainer will implement the changes)
• Edit on GitHub: Edit directly via the GitHub UI; you can also manually edit content by modifying files in the content directory

Easy Mode

If you're not familiar with GitHub making a pull request seems complicated, then you can simply input your content suggestion or news article into a New Issue and another contributor can make a PR for you. Also, you can reach out for help from other contributors in the discord #website channel.
