     14== How to contribute ==
     15In general, it is a good idea to either join us on the [https://wildfiregames.com/forum/ forums] and/or on [irc://irc.quakenet.org/0ad-dev #0ad-dev on QuakeNet IRC].
     16==== Programming ====
     17If you want to help with programming, a good first step is joining the IRC-channel [irc://irc.quakenet.org/0ad-dev #0ad-dev on QuakeNet IRC]. Usually there are some developers in IRC who can help you get started. Next, most development work (code review) is done on [https://code.wildfiregames.com/ Phabricator]. One can look around here to see what things are currently in the process of being added to the game.
     18For further information, check out [wiki:GettingStartedProgrammers].
     19==== Art ====
     20Most of the communication around art is done on the [https://wildfiregames.com/forum/index.php?/forum/409-art-development/ art forums], and one should probably start there.
