Do you already have MacPorts installed on your system ?<br>
<br>
You can find the guide at [1]. The Idea list can be found at [2].<br>
<br>
You can either start with contributing to the core behind macports<br>
i.e., macports-base[3] or add/update existing portfiles (recipes to<br>
install packages) i.e., macports-ports[4].<br>
<br>
To get started with contributing to macports-base, we have an<br>
introductory video[5] which will explain about the codebase very well.<br>
<br>
To jump into creating or working on existing portfile, our guide on<br>
portfile development[6] is a good starting point. You may also read<br>
existing portfile in our macports-ports repository[4].<br>
