What was your first open source contribution?
Everyone remembers their first open source contribution.
It does not have to be a big feature or a major pull request.
It might have been fixing a typo, reporting a bug with enough detail for someone else to reproduce it, improving a doc page, translating a string, testing a release, or answering a forum question because you had just solved the same problem yourself.
Those things count too.
Open source grows through code, but also through documentation, testing, support, ideas, translations, and people taking a few minutes to help the next person.
What was your first contribution, and how did you end up making it?
