  4. Welcome!
  5. We have a bunch of documentation about how to develop Tor in the

  7. doc/HACKING/README.1st.md , and then go from there. It will tell
  8. you how to find your way around the source code, how to get
  9. involved with the Tor community, how to write patches, and much
  10. more!
  11. You don't have to be a C developer to help with Tor: have a look
