Tech Team
We have a lot of development work to do: on the Open Food Facts backend (Perl and MongoDB), API (JSON), web site (HTML5, JS, Foundation), iOS / Android / Windows Phone / FirefoxOS apps (currently developed in HTML and JS with Apache Cordova / Phonegap), to build new cool reuses etc.
All our code is on GitHub : https://github.com/openfoodfacts/

Principles
- discuss the topics or issues or functionalities you want to work on. The slack workspace is the best choice for it.
- open an issue on Github to explain the problem you want to solve or the functionality you want to work on.
- fork the project and create one branch per issue or functionality you want to work on. When you're ready to propose something, send a "pull request".
- coding style is defined in the .editorconfig file, see https://github.com/openfoodfacts/openfoodfacts-server/blob/master/.editorconfig
