Have you compiled VLC yet? The first step in VLC development is to
compile VLC from source.

https://wiki.videolan.org/Compile_VLC

More developer documenhttps://wiki.videolan.org/Developers_Cornertation
about VLC: https://wiki.videolan.org/Developers_Corner

Once you've compiled VLC, then you can take a look at the bug tracker
for issues, or just find an issue that bothers you and try to fix it.
