# Contribution abap2UI5 is an open-source project built by the ABAP community, often in free time or alongside other projects. All kinds of contributions are welcome. ## How You Can Contribute There are several ways to get involved and help: - Extend the view builder — for example, add a missing property to an existing control - Add a new UI5 control to the framework so everyone can use it - Build a custom control for your own specific scenario and share it - Share your demos and apps to showcase what's possible with abap2UI5 - Improve the documentation and polish code snippets to make abap2UI5 easier to learn - Propose something new — every contribution is appreciated, no matter the size ## Turn Answers into Documentation The cheapest contribution is one you have already half-made: when a question comes up on Slack or in an issue for the second time, the answer wants to become permanent — an entry in [Common Failures](/cookbook/troubleshooting/common_failures) when it starts from an error message, a paragraph on the page that should have answered it, or, when a script can decide it, a check that makes the mistake impossible to merge. That is how the whole project works internally — every defect found by hand becomes a rule, a reference example or a gate, so nobody has to discover it twice — and a distilled answer helps every future reader, where a Slack thread helps one. ## Need Help?
