Hey Aditya, welcome to our family. ; o)
You should get started making yourself comfortable with our codebase and try to solve some small issues to get a feeling for it. Don't hesitate to drop us a line if you are stuck or need support in understanding what the hack we are doing. Looking forward to hear and see more from you. ; o) Best, Markus .::YAGNI likes a DRY KISS::. ---------------------------------------- > From: meta1...@gmail.com > Subject: New contributor introduction > To: dev@fineract.incubator.apache.org > Date: Fri, 29 Apr 2016 18:53:29 +0530 > > Hello all, > > I am an M.Sc. student at Chennai Mathematical Institute, India. > As part of Google Summer of Code, I'll be working on integrating UPI[1] > support into Fineract.
