Re: [gnome-women] Require guidance to start with gnome-development

[Neha <ndoijode gmail com>]

Hi there,

It would be better to go through the list of GNOME projects and select a few to start with. [1]
Build the source code of the project you would like to work on using JHbuild.[2]
Look for a simple bug on GNOME Bugzilla.[3] 
Write a patch for the bug, join the IRC of the relevant project to seek help.
Then look for features in the project's roadmap and try contributing.

[1] http://git.gnome.org/browse/
[2]  https://live.gnome.org/Jhbuild
[3] https://bugzilla.gnome.org/

Cheers,
Neha

Hi!

I'm Dheepikaa, doing my 4th semester in Computer Science and Engineering. I'm interested in contributing to gnome development. I want to get started with it. I'm familiar with a couple of gnome applications. It would be great if anyone could help me in getting started ( like what do I start with? Any small bugs that I could fix or small piece of code i could work on?? ) I also want to know if I could propose any new feature.

One thing I wanted to do was undo a command in terminal when I was initially working with Ubuntu. I used to make many mistakes (like changing the PATH variable) that resulted in many crashes.
It would be of great help if anyone could guide me to start with gnome development. Thank you.
