Dear Dev Team,I hope you're all doing well. My name is Eslam Samy, and I’m a
Computer Engineering student from Egypt and an aspiring backend developer with
experience in Java and Spring Boot. I’m very interested in contributing to
Apache Dubbo through Google Summer of Code 2025, particularly the Service
Discovery project.I’ve been exploring Dubbo and working on a small project to
familiarize myself with its concepts. TheService Discovery project caught my
attention because of its focus on well-organized logs, actuator endpoints, and
tooling improvements—topics I have some experience with and would love to learn
more about. While I have basic knowledge of microservice architectures, I’m
eager to deepen my understanding through hands-on contributions.To better
prepare for GSoC, I’d love to start contributing early and I wanted to ask a
few questions about getting started. Are there any specific tasks or
assessments required from GSoC participants? Additionally, are there any key
topics I should study to better prepare for this project? Also, what’s the best
way to get started contributing to Apache Dubbo?I’m excited about the
opportunity to learn from the Apache Dubbo community and contribute
meaningfully to this project. Thank you for your time and guidance—I really
appreciate any advice you can share.
PS : I tried to email the mentor @ jun...@apache.org but I got an automated
response indicating failure to send the email.Best regards,
Eslam Samy
