There are many ways you can contribute to Django REST framework. We'd like it to be a community-led project, so please get involved and help shape the future of the project.
Community
# Community
The most important thing you can do to help push the REST framework project forward is to be actively involved wherever possible. Code contributions are often overvalued as being the primary way to get involved in a project, we don't believe that needs to be the case.
If you use REST framework, we'd love you to be vocal about your experiences with it - you might consider writing a blog post about using REST framework, or publishing a tutorial about building a project with a particular JavaScript framework. Experiences from beginners can be particularly helpful because you'll be in the best position to assess which bits of REST framework is more difficult to understand and work with.

When answering questions make sure to help future contributors find their way around by hyperlinking wherever possible to related threads and tickets, and include backlinks from those items if relevant.
#Code of conduct
# Code of conduct
Please keep the tone polite & professional. For some users, a discussion on the REST framework mailing list or ticket tracker may be their first engagement with the open source community. First impressions count, so let's try to make everyone feel welcome.
Be mindful in the language you choose. As an example, in an environment that is heavily male-dominated, posts that start 'Hey guys,' can come across as unintentionally exclusive. It's just as easy and more inclusive to use gender-neutral language in those situations. (e.g. 'Hey folks,')
The Django code of conduct gives a fuller set of guidelines for participating in community forums.
#Issues
# Issues
It's really helpful if you can make sure to address issues on the correct channel. Usage questions should be directed to the discussion group. Feature requests, bug reports, and other issues should be raised on the GitHub issue tracker.

# Some tips on good issue reporting:
When describing issues try to phrase your ticket in terms of the behavior you think needs changing rather than the code you think need changing.
Search the issue list first for related items, and make sure you're running the latest version of REST framework before reporting an issue.
