Ask HN: What open source projects need help?

Let's match open source projects that need help with developers looking to contribute. Think of this as "Who's Hiring" but for open source - a monthly thread to surface interesting projects that could use more hands.

Please include: Project name and description (if not widely known); Tech stack; Areas needing help (DOCS, CODE, DESIGN, etc.); Level (BEGINNER-FRIENDLY if applicable); Email address or other means of contacting you.

Ground rules:

Post only if you maintain/run the project

One post per project/suite

No commercial recruitment

No thread complaints

Developers: Only reach out if you actually want to contribute.

I maintain Neverball, a 3D rolling ball game. It's a spare time project for me. Written in C, ported to the web via WASM and handwritten HTML/CSS/JS (https://play.neverball.org). Been polishing the web app for a while, but looking for critiques that might help me pinpoint where the web app falls short of expectation. Contacts: https://github.com/Neverball/neverball/discussions or HN.

Thank you! I have fond memories of Neverball and Neverputt, and still play them occasionally when the mood strikes.
