            We want to make it as easy as possible for {{AppName}} users to become {{AppName}} contributors, so we’ve 
            created this guide to help you get started. We have multiple tracks to cater to people of varying 
            experience levels.
        </p>
        <p class="pages-small">
            If you’re uncomfortable getting into open source development right away, you may want to consider 
            the Documentation or Translation tracks. Documentation and Translation are both just as important as 
            code, and we'd be happy to have your contributions.
