> If you want to start working on something Zcash related and you don’t know where to start, Zallet is a good way to do it. With many RPC methods already developed that can be good examples for the creation of others, the project is in a good shape to start taking contributions from the broad community. Fork the Zallet repo and start hacking!.

Good resume, Pacu!

I think communities needs to do more noise about this! Testers and developers are very necessary and important
