### Finding a ticket
|

xNow that you can build GHC, let's get hacking. But first, you'll need to identify a goal. GHC's GitLab tickets are a great place to find starting points. You are encouraged to ask for a starting point on IRC or the `ghc-devs` [mailing list](mailing-lists-and-irc). There someone familiar with the process can help you find a ticket that matches your expertise and help you when you get stuck.

If you want to get a taste for possible starting tasks, the ~newcomer label collects tickets that appear to be "low-hanging fruit" -- things that might be reasonable for a newcomer to GHC hacking. Of course, we can't ever be sure of how hard a task is before doing it, so apologies if one of these is too hard.
