Dear Paul and Lucene.NET Dev Team, I hope this message finds you well.
My name is Syed Abdullah, and I am a passionate Software Engineer with over three years of experience in developing robust backend and frontend applications. I am currently working at Contour Software,where I specialize in .NET Core, microservices architecture, and workflow automation using Elsa Workflow. I am in my initial stages of career and quite new to open source. I recently came across the proposed GSoC 2025 idea focused on enhancing the Lucene.NET ASP.NET Core library. This project strongly aligns with my tech stack and interests, and I would love to contribute to it. I’m reaching out to introduce myself and seek your guidance on how I can start contributing—whether through resolving beginner issues, reviewing existing architecture, or exploring areas that need documentation or enhancement. Here are some links to my profiles for reference: - LinkedIn: [ https://www.linkedin.com/in/syed-abdullah-07b84912b/](https://www.linkedin.com/in/syed-abdullah-07b84912b/) - GitHub: [ https://github.com/SyedAbdullah58-dev](https://github.com/SyedAbdullah58-dev) - Portfolio: [ https://syedabdullah58-dev.github.io/react-portfolio/](https://syedabdullah58-dev.github.io/react-portfolio/) I’m enthusiastic about learning more from the community and contributing meaningfully to the project. Looking forward to your response and any direction you can offer to help me get started. Warm regards, Syed Abdullah syedabdullah199...@gmail.com
