Thanks a lot for sharing the guide ! I’ll go through the CONTRIBUTING.md and try something contributing. Really appreciate your help.

On a play server or virtual machine, try setting it upby defining the server fully using Ansible. Search on Ansible Galaxy to find roles to install your software: https://galaxy.ansible.com

Make a playbook for the server that pulls in all the Ansible roles needed to define it. For example, a role for Nginx, one for Node.js and one for MySQL.

In the process you are likely to find some ways that the roles could be improved in the code or docs.

Make some changes, test them in your play environment, and then submit a PR.

Or, for each role you find, look at their bug tracker and see if there are already some open issues you could tackle.

Good luck!
