So You Want to be a Blender Developer, But Where Do You Start?

First of all, I can't give you any first-hand advice on how to start down the road to being a Blender developer. I think it's more important to get that advice directly from the source.

Campbell Barton (one of the lead Blender developers, aka ideasman42) has provided a really nice overview of how you might approach this goal. Being self-taught, his advice is very practical and efficient.

This is one of the great things about Blender being Open Source Software, you can get involved and make some kind of difference in so many ways.
