1. **Find issues that you want to work on.**
110+
You can filter GitHub issues by labels.
109111
Working on documentation or on issues labeled with either `33 needs: docs` or `41 lvl: easy` are the two best ways for first-time contributors to contribute.
110112
This is because first-timers have a fresh perspective that might be overlooked by old-timers.
113+
Issues labeled `42 lvl: moderate`, `43 lvl: complex`, or `03 type: feature (plip)` are not suitable for first-timers because of their complexity.
114+
Issues with these labels may take weeks to complete.

1. **Discuss whether you should perform any work.**
