  • Regarding how to join open source

    From Anish Kumbhar@21:1/5 to All on Sat Feb 26 06:40:01 2022
    Hi Sir/Madam,
    I am Anish Devendra Kumbhar, 1 st Year B.Tech student in CSE.
    I know C and C++, and am learning web development and python.
    I am really curious to know about open source and its contribution process. This will be my first experience with an open source project and its
    community, so please guide me about how to proceed further.

    There are lots of different ways to contribute to Debian listed here:

    https://www.debian.org/intro/help

    Since you are a student you might be interested in a paid internship
    with Debian through the Google Summer of Code program or possibly other opportunities for mentoring.

    https://wiki.debian.org/SummerOfCode2022
    https://wiki.debian.org/Mentoring

    There is lots of software in Debian written in C and C++. The main
    C/C++ packages that are maintained by Debian are apt and dpkg.

    https://wiki.debian.org/Teams/Apt
    https://wiki.debian.org/Teams/Dpkg

    The Debian Python team maintains a lot of packages of Python modules
    and can always use more help.

    https://wiki.debian.org/Teams/PythonTeam

    If you are interested in Debian's quality assurance processes and
    tools, please refer to this page:

    https://wiki.debian.org/qa.debian.org

    If you have any further questions about packaging or the different ways
    of getting involved in Debian, please read the intro and then ask your questions on the debian-mentors mailing list:

    https://mentors.debian.net/intro-maintainers/
    https://lists.debian.org/debian-mentors/
