How to help

These are small projects waiting for one or two folks to jump into them.

Other ways to help us


Boost Docs repository

We are working on several boost tools to support the new features and improve their usability. This work is stored in boost sandbox. Go to the boost docs repository page to learn how it is organized.


Docs Translations

If we want to have an unified look and feel in boost docs, we need that all documentation be in a standard format. We are translating HTML based docs to dockbook format. There are a lot of documents to translate, we need more volunteers to help in the process. If you want to participate go to the docs translations project page. (We now have a bunch of tools that makes painless the process, please jump in!)


Unified look & feel

We are working in a new look for Boost and we are developing navigation tools to help users read the enormous amount of documentation aavailablein boost. Go to the unified look & feel project page to find what is new and rationales behind the ddecisions


Subprojects

There are some small subprojects targeted to solve specific needs. Go to the subproject page to participate in them.

Volunteers are periodically testing the new docs in each platform and browser. Go to the browser testing chart.
