Hi Chris;

Great to see you wanting to get involved in FreeBSD. FWIW, we had a 16 yr. old
developer once, so perhaps you will break the record ;).

I would recommend starting with the ports tree (that’s how I got started):

https://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/books/porters-handbook/ <https://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/books/porters-handbook/>

You could probably start updating some port of interest. Updating something like
editors/calligra would be really nice ;).

Pedro.
