Some offer tutoring. * If you are interested in Python, a popular development language in Ubuntu, see [[http://okiebuntu.homelinux.com/okwiki/pythonquest | Quest for Python]] a resource of python tutorials as well as tips for setting up Gedit to program python. * Read the [[https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PackagingGuide | Packaging Guide.]] This will be a valuable source as you develop for Ubuntu. Particularly [[PackagingGuide/Recipes]] is a good start, as you get to play around with the tools a bit. To get a first impression, you also might want to check out the [[MOTU/Videos|MOTU Videos]] * Become familiar with [[UbuntuDevelopment|the Ubuntu Development overview]], this will help you get an idea how the Ubuntu Development Process works. Definitely check out [[UbuntuDevelopment/KnowledgeBase]] for a good list of in-depth guides, tutorials and guidelines. * Check the Development Focus group [[ https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BeginnersTeam/FocusGroups/Development/Academy | Academy page]] for any current programming classes. * Another place to look for Package oriented classes is the [[Packaging/Training]] sessions in [[irc://irc.freenode.net/ubuntu-classroom|#ubuntu-classroom]]. * [[http://daniel.holba.ch/temp/guide/fixing-a-bug.html | Work on bug fixes]] and new packages. This is where you should start once familiar with packaging and/or a particular programming language. * Request sponsor review of suggested changes, where sponsors: * review the packages prepared by the prospective developer * provide constructive feedback * upload the package when they are satisfied with its quality * for more information, please read [[SponsorshipProcess]] |

The development path is here to help new users learn about the development process for Ubuntu and to provide a roadmap to becoming part of the global team of community developers known as Masters of the Universe. The Ubuntu beginners team can provide the following support.
- Programming languages
- Programming tools
- Ubuntu packaging
- Version control systems
- Patches
- Minor bug reporting/triaging
Ubuntu development is not all about programming, in fact a large portion of the community contributions require no programming knowledge at all. Packaging, documentation and bug triaging are all part of the overall development process, and are just as important.
