Besu issues are tracked in Jira not GitHub. See our contribution guidelines for more details on searching and creating issues.

If you've commented on an existing issue and have been waiting for a reply, or want to message us for any other reason, feel free to ping us on RocketChat.

Choosing an Issue to contribute on

When you've identified an issue you'd like to work on, ping us on Rocketchat and we'll assign it to you.

Browse the following lists for easy pickings.

Start by looking through the 'good first issue' and 'help wanted' labeled issues on the Jira dashboard:

Good First Issues

The filtered list of good-first-issues is perfect for contributors wanting to get started with the project.

These are issues which should only require a few lines of code or documentation, and maybe a test or two.

Help Wanted

Help-wanted issues are a bit more involved than `good first issue` issues.
