Our ideas page has many such project ideas, but I challenge you to learn about 
our needs and figure out what areas of development would be interesting to you.

There’s hundreds of potential projects that fit your skills so again the 
challenge is to you to discover what those are independently and you decide 
what the best fit will be.  You will also never get perfect directions.  Use 
that awareness to figure out how you can be the most independently productive 
without requiring time from others to guide you.  That is how you we become a 
successful open source contributor.

Cheers!
