* '''Fixing frontend code''': [http://maproulette.org/ MapRoulette] is a fun tool that recommends map edits for you to make. The code is [https://github.com/osmlab/maproulette on GitHub here], with [https://github.com/osmlab/maproulette/issues issues listed here]. This issue looks like a good one to get started with fixing: [https://github.com/osmlab/maproulette/issues/224 "because we use element fadeouts quite a bit, we should probably disable buttons visually right when the user clicks them - right now there is no visual feedback when clicking a button, other than the dialog fading"].

* '''Verifying a reported frontend bug''': The [http://tasks.hotosm.org/ OSM Tasking Manager] also helps map editors find editing tasks to work on. The code is [https://github.com/hotosm/osm-tasking-manager on GitHub here], with [https://github.com/hotosm/osm-tasking-manager/issues?state=open issues listed here]. You could help the project by seeing if you can reproduce this reported bug: [https://github.com/hotosm/osm-tasking-manager/issues/195 "Seems when scrolling up or down with the mouse wheel within the embed map, it moves both the map scale and the webpage scrollbar"] - and then add more details to that bug in a comment.

* '''Changing frontend code''': The [http://davis.openhatch.org/ OpenHatch at UC Davis] page uses a Google Map - how about switching that to an OpenStreetMap instead? Here's some documentation for how to do this: [http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Export#Embeddable_HTML "Embeddable HTML with an added Marker"]. The code is here: [https://github.com/oh-davis/oh-davis.github.io oh-davis.github.io].
* '''Writing user experience feedback''': Make an OpenStreetMap account and try making some map edits (such as correcting any incorrect streets or street names in your neighborhood), and write down notes on your thought process and any problems you encounter, especially parts of the interface you find confusing or frustrating. The default map editing tool is called [http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/ID iD], and you can [https://github.com/openstreetmap/iD/issues file bugs here]. If you don't know exactly what to report as a bug, you can also write about your experience on the OpenStreetMap website using the built-in [http://www.openstreetmap.org/diary "diary entry"] feature, and then other OpenStreetMap developers and users can read your feedback to help them figure out how to improve OpenStreetMap.
