 Setting up a development environment for Firefox Mobile is relatively easy. Just follow our [[Mobile/Fennec/Android|build instructions]] and you'll be ready to start hacking after a couple of hours—mostly waiting for everything to compile.
-If you are looking for guidance, there is a [http://www.joshmatthews.net/bugsahoy/?mobile=1 list of bugs] (or a [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=prod%3AFennec%20Native+whiteboard%3Amentor less-pleasant view]) that are marked with an assigned mentor (see "Whiteboard" field). The mentor will help you get the necessary information to understand the issue, point out relevant parts of the code to look at, etc.
-If you are already familiar with Mozilla development and want to help work on mobile bugs, see the [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=prod%3Aandroid%20blocking-fennec%3A%2B%20%40nobody&list_id=6141094 list of "tracking-fennec" bugs] for high-priority bugs. Or browse through any of our open bugs!
 Before starting to work on a bug, you should make sure you have your development environment set up. When you're ready to start hacking, it's a good idea to add a comment to the bug report letting the mentor know that you want to work on it. Ideally, the bug report should already have relevant source code links to help you get started. If you're unsure whether to take a certain bug or not, you can always [[#Communication|contact us]] for clarification. If the bug you're working on involves UI changes, request feedback from the UX team (see contact list [[#Communication|below]]) before landing.
