The FreeBSD Documentation Project Primer for New Contributors covers everything you will need to know in order to start contributing to the FreeBSD Documentation Project, from the tools and software you will be using (both mandatory and recommended) to the philosophy behind the Documentation Project.

The FreeBSD Doceng Team Charter describes the purpose of Doceng.

The FreeBSD Porter’s Handbook is a general guide for FreeBSD ports committers, including both technical information and policy guidelines.
