I was looking at the contributors on Github. There’s a sharp decline in number of contributions in the top 25. Almost 150 times more.
So if you want to tell your friends that you’re one of the top contributors to one of the best projects on Github, it’ll take less than an evening’s worth of work. Go on, you can do it! There’s a great guide available and quite a few people willing to help you. Documentation or code, both are important and both are welcome.

I wasn’t sure which guide you were referring to, so I grabbed the usual suspects:
# Contributing to Hugo
We welcome contributions to Hugo of any kind including documentation, themes,
organization, tutorials, blog posts, bug reports, issues, feature requests,
feature implementations, pull requests, answering questions on the forum,
helping to manage issues, etc.
The Hugo community and maintainers are [very active](https://github.com/gohugoio/hugo/pulse/monthly) and helpful, and the project benefits greatly from this activity. We created a [step by step guide](https://gohugo.io/tutorials/how-to-contribute-to-hugo/) if you're unfamiliar with GitHub or contributing to open source projects in general.
*Note that this repository only contains the actual source code of Hugo. For **only** documentation-related pull requests / issues please refer to the [hugoDocs](https://github.com/gohugoio/hugoDocs) repository.*
*Pull requests that contain changes on the code base **and** related documentation, e.g. for a new feature, shall remain a single, atomic one.*
