Hi Rahul, welcome to OSM GSoC and thank you for your interest in the Nominatim projects. I'm glad to hear that you managed to get the development environment set up. We generally recommend to use the Vagrant scripts for a first try, which is still based on Ubuntu 16.04LTS but there should not be any significant difference with Ubuntu 17.10.
With the development environment set up, I recommend that you next import an extract from your local area and get used to the API. Then you should take some time to get used to the code. Have a look at the issues marked simple[1] and see if you can solve them. If you have any questions, feel free to ask here on the dev@ mailing list or on the more specific geocoding@ mailing list.
