Want to start making open-source contributions to projects in the
193+
Scala ecosystem?
194+
195+
Scaladex lists [projects welcoming contributions](https://index.scala-lang.org/search?q=&contributingSearch=true).
196+
197+
Also, on GitHub, a common convention is to use the label "good first issue"
198+
on issues that are especially easy on-ramps to getting started in
199+
a particular repo:
200+
201+
* "good first issue" tickets: https://github.com/search?q=type%3Aissue+label%3A%22good+first+issue%22+language%3AScala+state%3Aopen&type=Issues
202+
203+
And, some repos also use a "help wanted" label if the maintainers
204+
especially desire contributor attention:

* "help wanted" tickets: https://github.com/search?q=type%3Aissue+label%3A%22help+wanted%22+language%3AScala+state%3Aopen&type=Issues
