The intern would help out fixing bugs in the HTML Standard, which involves editing HTML, reading the HTML standard, testing browsers, and using GitHub.

The intern would learn how standards are created, how to resolve technical issues, and help converge implementations by improving the HTML standard.

To make it easier to get started, the WHATWG identified a set of [https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/buglist.cgi?bug_status=UNCONFIRMED&bug_status=NEW&bug_status=ASSIGNED&bug_status=REOPENED&component=HTML&list_id=59317&product=WHATWG&status_whiteboard=%5Bgood%20first%20bug%5D&status_whiteboard_type=substring "good first bugs" on Bugzilla] and [https://github.com/whatwg/html/labels/good%20first%20bug "good first bugs" on GitHub] to start with. (The HTML standard is slowly migrating towards GitHub, but many issues are still recorded only in Bugzilla.)
