FAQ
Do I need to be a coder?
No, not at all. Most of the tasks we do require no special knowledge. And, what you don't know today, we can help you learn. So, really, don't hesitate to get involved if you want to contribute. We want people of all skill levels!
Is Ubuntu Studio a volunteer project?
Yes. Ubuntu Studio developers are all volunteers, so none of us are getting paid for what we do. We do this on our free time.
