Hi Christopher, you are very welcome in our project. Whether your volunteers are developers, designers, translators, QA fellows, help authors... we have teams for all disciplines. Start from http://www.libreoffice.org/community/get-involved/ to find the how-to pages at our wiki. Speaking about UX, the start page is https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Design with all relevant information. My advice is to just jump into the cold water and to read and comment on Bugzilla http://bugs.documentfoundation.org/ (design related tickets have the keyword needsuxadvice). As Henry pointed out we also have Spanish speaking communities. A group was created recently on Telegram (https://telegram.me/libreoffice_es). The local communities are one of the main pillars for LibreOffice. CC'ing the marketing about that who may know details.
Thanks a lot for fostering Open Source, Heiko Tietze (UX Mentor at LibreOffice) 2017-07-29 17:56 GMT+02:00 Christopher Díaz <christopher.diaz....@gmail.com>: > Hi, > > My name is Christopher Díaz Riveros, I'm a software development student > in Lima, Peru.
