Project ideas

Intro

  • People periodically enquire: “Request someone to guide me on: What I have to learn and what I can contribute.”
  • Most such people end up contributing nothing despite getting fair project ideas. But some do!
  • We hope some of those will contribute and share good open source code (perfection not required, WIP is fine).
  • This page seeks to address such enquiries more concisely.

Contribute to existing open source projects

First find a project / team which fits you.

  • Click around this site, find useful tools and ideas. Then find out where the source code is published.
    • Contribute to this site while at it: “Please fix by clicking on the pencil icon and sending a pull request as and when you find errors.”
  • Visit some github organizations and users directly, look at their repositories.
  • Look at mailing list announcements.
  • Look at the project lists below.

Then contribute

  • Read some of the source code, contact authors for ideas about how to contribute. Send pull requests, open github issues, sent emails on our mailing list.
