I&amp;#x27;d recommend something application, as opposed to system, level to get started.  That way you can develop using something like Python and not worry about lots of other dependencies on whatever you&amp;#x27;re working on.&lt;p&gt;There generally isn&amp;#x27;t much in the way of formal organization in the open source world... just scratch an itch that you have.  There are relatively few people working on things specific to Linux on mobile so even a modest contribution can have a big impact.  For example, the developer of the Megapixels camera app, which is a vast improvement over what existed previously but still needs much work, just wanted a better camera app.</text><parent_chain><item><author>officeplant</author><text>As a owner of many pine64 products I wish there was a clear path to learning how to contribute.
