 * Hi,
 * Why don’t you offer a plugin to enable installation of beta, dev and nightly 
   versions for Gutenberg?
 * I like to test and work with the newest version as obviously we all know it’s
   in beta quality anyway!

 * Hi @slkfsdf8y34ljhsfsdfkuhfkl84hj!
 * To create such a plugin, we’d first have to make a system that creates nightly
   builds. This would be nice to have, but has not yet happened.
 * Development happens on Github, though, and it comes with a local development 
   environment that you can install yourself and try it out in. There are instructions
   here:
 * [https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/blob/master/docs/contributors/getting-started.md](https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/blob/master/docs/contributors/getting-started.md)
 * It requires being a little bit adventurous, but it does allow you to test features
   the moment they land.
 * Alternately, the Gutenberg project does aim to release on a weekly cadence as
   far as is humanly possible, so with every new release you do get the latest and
   greatest simply by running the plugin.
 * Glad to hear you’re excited to test out!

 * I do internet marketing and my general understanding of coding is not that great,
   but I do get management and UX. I was thinking if there is some reason to help
   WordPress other than coding. I guess some of the tickets I can create myself 
   without being a coder or I would also have to provide a coding solution for the
   problem? I am quite technical, but not a coder. I am still seeing very irritating
   glitchy and bad UX across the board, despite the huge progress being made so 
   far.
 * I am seeing piling up for WordPress tickets, some even 10+ year old etc. Yet,
   Gutenburg is great. I guess we need more developers?
 * I just want to see the full WYSIWYG faster as I am not happy with the cluttered
   and slow page builders so far, and in the same time Gutenberg make things significantly
   slower in comparison to Classic Editors in many scenarios like writing long form
   content.
 * So to clarify I would like to know if there is a way a technical, but non-coder
   to help with improving the project – primarily Gutenberg.

 * There’s absolutely a place for contributing in a manner that isn’t coding, and
   your help is much appreciated. There are some guidelines in [https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/blob/master/docs/contributors/readme.md#sections](https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/blob/master/docs/contributors/readme.md#sections),
   for documentation, triage and localization also!
