## Advice for new contributors
Start small. The PRs most likely to be merged are the ones that make small,
easily reviewed changes with clear, and specific intentions. See below for more
easily reviewed changes with clear and specific intentions. See below for more
[guidelines on pull requests](#pull-requests).
It's a good idea to gauge interest in your intended work by finding the current issue
for it or creating a new one yourself. You can use also that issue as a place to signal
your intentions and get feedback from the users most likely to appreciate your changes.
You're most likely to have your pull request accepted easily if it addresses bugs already
in the [Next Steps project](https://github.com/WhisperSystems/Signal-Desktop/projects/1),
especially if they are near the top of the Backlog column. Those are what we'll be looking
at next, so it would be a great help if you helped us out!
Once you've spent a little bit of time planning your solution, it's a good idea to go
back to the issue and talk about your approach. We'd be happy to provide feedback. [An
ounce of prevention, as they say!](https://www.goodreads.com/quotes/247269-an-ounce-of-prevention-is-worth-a-pound-of-cure)
