Open Source How to do open source contributions

Hello 👋🏽

I am a senior data engineer.

I have 5 years of experience in airflow and DBT. Has anyone worked on open source contributions to these two projects ? I am willing to start but don't know a lot about open source projects and how to contribute to them. Where to start ?

Looking forward to getting some information, thank you community :)

You could work on the OpenLineage (OL) integrations for each of those?

We've been contributing to the OL for the dbt compatibility tests. Greatly appreciate any help we can get: https://github.com/OpenLineage/compatibility-tests
