Welcome aboard! :) To start with, I’d recommend that you follow the FAQ tutorial at http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/DevGuide/FAQTutorial/FAQTutorialManual Have you done it already? Also you should read a bit on how the xwiki project develops code. All the info is on the dev subwiki at http://dev.xwiki.org Especially: - http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Community/DevelopmentPractices - http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Community/CodeStyle - http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Community/Testing Let us know when you’ve done all that. You should also pick and try to fix some simple jira issues: https://jira.xwiki.org/issues/?jql=Difficulty%20%3D%20Easy%20and%20resolution%20%3D%20Unresolved Let us know on IRC or on this list if you need some help. Please consider using martrix for IRC since it saves history and we can have a conversation even when you’re not connected, see: http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Community/Chat Thanks -Vincent > > Thanks :) > > On Mon, May 8, 2017 at 8:21 PM, Marius Dumitru Florea < > mariusdumitru.flo...@xwiki.com> wrote: > >> Welcome Sarthak! >> >> Thanks, >> Marius >> >> On Sun, May 7, 2017 at 8:51 AM, Sarthak Gupta <sarthakgupta...@gmail.com> >> wrote: >> >>> Hi Everyone, >>> I am Sarthak Gupta from India.
