Oh, hey! I'm pharpend from the IRC channel.

There's a *lot* of work that needs to be done. Recently, I've been going
through <https://snowdrift.coop/p/snowdrift/t> and trying to pick the
low-hanging fruit.

I've also been meaning to make a series of video tutorials explaining
how to get started contributing, so now might be an opportune time. 

To get started with Snowdrift, you should have a basic command of each
of these:

* Haskell: <https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Haskell>
* Yesod: <http://www.yesodweb.com/book>
* Git: <https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2>

From there, figuring out how to contribute *should* be pretty
self-explanatory. Feel free to ask me for help, or ask in the channel,
should you get stuck.
