I have a background in UX before diving into programming. And the simple answer is just to talk to people and then ask in a friendly way. How you start the conversation doesn’t matter much at the start. As long as it isn’t off putting people are quite friendly. I found it always help to explain your goal/project your working on. Starting the conversation with: “Hi I’m working on a fun project and wanted to get out and talk to some people about it. Do you have some time to help me?” After doing this with 30 people in your social circle, slowly start reading up and improving your approach and start asking people further away from you
