For the basics, I'd suggest to have a look at the following resources: https://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/developers-handbook/ https://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/porters-handbook/ This should provide a good introduction on the toolchains and workflow. Rquipped with this knowledge, you should have a good starting point within FreeBSD development and contribution. General overview on contribution possibilities: https://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/articles/contributing/index.html Furthermore, the FreeBSD source code is of high educational value, so studying interesting parts of it is helpful.
