What if you contribute to Eclipse ?
summary
Explains how to contribute step-by-step: sign the Eclipse contributor agreement (DCO), grab the Eclipse IDE for committers or use Oomph, use plugin spy (Shift+Alt+F1) to find code, import projects from git, run Maven to build, and debug Eclipse from Eclipse. Shows a real fix: add javax.annotation dependency to make a view work on JDK11, push a Gerrit change, Jenkins builds and the patch merges and publishes to the Marketplace.
