Hi, I am a newbie in Python and that's why I find myself a perfect candidate to contribute to the Python community by improving Python's Documentation. The problem is I am new to git and Github and don't actually know how to contribute. It would be a great help if I can get guidance on how to contribute. Also, I tried to familiarize myself with Sphinx with the help of the internet but failed miserably. If I can get some reference on how to get a basic idea of Sphinx that will also be a great help. Thank you. Sincerely, Abhishek.

Our contributing guide is at https://devguide.python.org/ We have some info on how to set use Git for CPython's workflow: https://devguide.python.org/gitbootcamp/ The Devguide also has info on how to contribute to the Documentation: https://devguide.python.org/docquality/ https://devguide.python.org/documenting/ I gave a quick intro to Sphinx and reStructuredText for Pyninsula Meetup last month, the video is here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v4eoYpCON_c It's not a comprehensive tutorial, but perhaps enough to get you started.
