## Getting help when contributing

Making your first contribution can be overwhelming. The
[New Contributor Ambassadors](https://github.com/kubernetes/website#new-contributor-ambassadors)
are there to walk you through making your first few contributions. You can reach out to them in the
[Kubernetes Slack](https://slack.k8s.io/) preferably in the `#sig-docs` channel. There is also the
[New Contributors Meet and Greet call](https://www.kubernetes.dev/resources/calendar/)
that happens on the first Tuesday of every month. You can interact with the New Contributor Ambassadors
and get your queries resolved here.

## Next steps

- Learn to [work from a local clone](/docs/contribute/new-content/open-a-pr/#fork-the-repo)
  of the repository.
- Document [features in a release](/docs/contribute/new-content/new-features/).
- Participate in [SIG Docs](/docs/contribute/participate/), and become a
  [member or reviewer](/docs/contribute/participate/roles-and-responsibilities/).
                       
- Start or help with a [localization](/docs/contribute/localization/).

## Get involved with SIG Docs

[SIG Docs](/docs/contribute/participate/) is the group of contributors who
publish and maintain Kubernetes documentation and the website. Getting
involved with SIG Docs is a great way for Kubernetes contributors (feature
development or otherwise) to have a large impact on the Kubernetes project.

SIG Docs communicates with different methods:

- [Join `#sig-docs` on the Kubernetes Slack instance](https://slack.k8s.io/). Make sure to
  introduce yourself!
- [Join the `kubernetes-sig-docs` mailing list](https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/kubernetes-sig-docs),
  where broader discussions take place and official decisions are recorded.
- Join the [SIG Docs video meeting](https://github.com/kubernetes/community/tree/master/sig-docs)
  held every two weeks. Meetings are always announced on `#sig-docs` and added to the
  [Kubernetes community meetings calendar](https://calendar.google.com/calendar/embed?src=cgnt364vd8s86hr2phapfjc6uk%40group.calendar.google.com&ctz=America/Los_Angeles).
  You'll need to download the [Zoom client](https://zoom.us/download) or dial in using a phone.
- Join the SIG Docs async Slack standup meeting on those weeks when the in-person Zoom
  video meeting does not take place. Meetings are always announced on `#sig-docs`.
  You can contribute to any one of the threads up to 24 hours after meeting announcement.

## Other ways to contribute

- Visit the [Kubernetes community site](/community/). Participate on Twitter or Stack Overflow,
  learn about local Kubernetes meetups and events, and more.
- Read the [contributor cheatsheet](https://www.kubernetes.dev/docs/contributor-cheatsheet/)
  to get involved with Kubernetes feature development.
- Visit the contributor site to learn more about [Kubernetes Contributors](https://www.kubernetes.dev/)
  and [additional contributor resources](https://www.kubernetes.dev/resources/).
- Learn how to [contribute to the official blogs](/docs/contribute/blog/)
- Submit a [case study](/docs/contribute/new-content/case-studies/)
