First of all 👏👏 thanks for visiting this page, for us means you are willing contribute to `verdaccio` and we are happy for that. Jumping into an unfamiliar code base is not easy but we are here to help you.
Node.js is the base of `verdaccio`, we use libraries as `express`, `commander`, `request` or `async`. Verdaccio is basically a Rest API that create a communication with `npm` clients compatible, as `yarn`.
We have a long [list of plugins](https://github.com/verdaccio/verdaccio/blob/master/wiki/plugins.md) ready to be used and improved but at the same time [you might create your own](plugin.md).
Of course, we will be happy to help us improving the stack, you can upgrade dependencies as `eslint`, `stylelint`, `webpack`. You migt merely improve the `webpack` configuration would be great. Any suggestion is very welcome. Furthermore whether you have experience with **Yeoman** you might help us with the [verdaccio generator](https://github.com/verdaccio/generator-verdaccio-plugin).
Here some ideas:
* Create a common eslint rules to be used across all dependencies or plugins
* Improve Flow types definitions delivery
* Moving to Webpack 4
* Improve hot reload with Webpack
* We use babel and webpack across all dependencies, why not a common preset?
We have a widely popular Docker image [https://hub.docker.com/r/verdaccio/verdaccio/](https://hub.docker.com/r/verdaccio/verdaccio/) that need maintenance and pretty likely huge improvements, we need your knowledge for the benefits of all users.
Verdaccio aims to be multilingual, in order to achieve it we have the awesome support of [Crowdin](https://crowdin.com) that is an amazing platform for translations.
We have setup a project where you can choose your favourite language, if you do not find your language feel free to request one [creating a ticket](https://github.com/verdaccio/verdaccio/issues/new).
