Occasionally, you may need to refer to our older documentation over on MuseScore.org. This includes the Developers' handbook, which is at some points slightly outdated, but which may still contain useful tips, including:

• Extensive per-platform instructions about building the 3.x branch, which may also help you in case of trouble building the master branch
• A suggested Git Workflow
• Information about Google Summer of Code
• Tips about IDE configuration

For information about other ways to contribute, see https://musescore.org/en/contribute. This page contains information about:

• Documentation of the MuseScore app
• Translating
• Testing
• Writing plugins
