Description
I suggest creating some easy-to-acces contributor's starting guide page (for contribution to less, not to the docs) or something. It should just contain a little description of the source tree. Sometimes repo's with a lot of files can seem a bit daunting, especially if you don't know what their purpose is.
Contributor guide
First steps
- Read the whole issue, then the project's contributing guide.
- Comment on the issue to say you are picking it up — it saves two people doing the same work.
- Fork the repository and make your change on a branch.
- Open a pull request that references the issue number.
Research direction
Review the repository source tree and existing contribution guidance to identify the areas that need explaining. Add an accessible contributor starting guide for Less development, including a short description of the source tree; the work is done when a newcomer can use the guide to understand where project code belongs.
