You might like the Datasette project: https://datasette.io/ I don't think they are desperate for contributions but it's a welcoming environment and a fun project to hack on. You'll learn a lot just from reading the source and the incredibly informative PRs. The creator is a really talented developer with a great blog which shows up on the HN front page often.

Thanks for sharing, looks like a fun project.

SEEKING VOLUNTEERS - https://www.oilshell.org/ - https://github.com/oilshell/oil/ I'm looking for people to help fill out the "standard library" for Oils/YSH.

But I've realized that the hardest parts are specifying, TESTING, and documenting what the functions do…

You know at first glance I thought the Shell Oil Company was asking for volunteers.
