How can I help? - mathwhiz1212 - 04-07-2016
I don't know lua currently but I want to help. What is the best way to do so? I have time but very little money.

If possible you can report bugs that haven't been reported before.

Yes, testing for bugs is a great use of your time. Just report them to the GitHub: https://github.com/cuberite/cuberite/issues
Writing documentation is also a great way to spend your time - but that probably does require some understanding of the programming languages.

There is a guide on how to test Cuberite and repot bugs: https://github.com/cuberite/cuberite/blob/master/TESTING.md

Welcome!
There's a lot you can do.
Cuberite is developed in C++ and Lua. To contribute code, please check out GETTING-STARTED.md and CONTRIBUTING.md for more details.
Plugins are written in Lua. You can contribute by developing plugins and submitting them to the forum. Please check out our plugin introduction guide for more info.
If you are not a programmer, you can help by testing Cuberite and reporting bugs. See TESTING.md for details.
You can also help with documentation by contributing to the User's Manual.

Thanks for all the replies! For now, I think I'll stick to testing, filing bug reports (that haven't been filed yet.) and maybe helping with some of the github issues. I'm planning on helping a little with compile.sh as well. (I already did a little bit: https://github.com/cuberite/cuberite/issues/3014)
