Its simple.

understand the project.
     why you are interested in it?
     why contribute to that project?

get pre-requisites
    hardware: get the hw and read its doc
    software: learn the used language
    common tools: git makefile gcc ....

look at :
    README
    HACKING
   docs/

read blogs
talk with peoples
build from source.
dive into source.

its more like gaining experience than algorithm.
