My name is Parth Mozarkar, and I am a first-year B.Tech CSE student interested in contributing to preCICE.
I recently came across your organization through GSoC and wanted to start exploring the project by getting familiar with the workflow and development setup.
I would love some guidance on how to get started as a new contributor, particularly regarding any beginner-friendly issues or documentation/tutorials that would be helpful in understanding the project better.
Looking forward to contributing and learning from the community!
Welcome @ParthMozarkar! Thank you for your interest. This is our first time joining GSoC, so I hope that our ideas list is clearly visible on your side of the platform:
As I understand it, we can also deviate from these ideas if there is a good reason and mutual interest between contributors and mentors. For this year, myself and @fsimonis will be mentoring, as shown on the list.
Since the application period just started, we expect that we might end up with more applications than we can actually mentor. Therefore, please use this thread to elaborate on your background, as described on the page. For any personal details that you are not comfortable having online, you can also reach out to me via a private message (but I would prefer keeping as much as possible in one thread per applicant in this category).
Looking forward to finding out more about your background and interests regarding these ideas!
