Re: Where can one find low hanging fruit for open source contribution?
Agree with Michael Klishin, I've gotten a few patches into Leiningen as a relative Clojure newb and the maintainers have been super friendly and helpful.

this website has a weekly curated list of simple tasks to be done in open source Clojure projects (it appeared to me on HN the other day): http://www.longstorm.org/weekly/cito/1/ Hope it helps.

Re: Where can one find low hanging fruit for open source contribution?
I'd suggest picking something based on your own interests. It is always best to work on something where you have personal motivation / passion. Once you've done that: identify an issue or two that you want to work on, engage with the community (to discuss ideas, check that nobody else is working on the same issue) and finally get hacking. A plug for a couple of my favourite projects in the data science / numerical computing space (for you, or anyone else who is keen!): - core.matrix has quite a few fairly accessible enhancements / issues to tackle: https://github.com/mikera/core.matrix/issues - Incanter is also a very interesting project to work on: https://github.com/incanter/incanter/issues On Saturday, 27 September 2014 14:34:19 UTC+8, kurofune wrote: I am an looking for a good, active, open source Clojure library/project to contribute to, but am not sure where to start.

Re: Where can one find low hanging fruit for open source contribution?
Hi there, About a week ago, I open sourced Onyx, a new distributed computation platform: https://github.com/MichaelDrogalis/onyx I've been looking for help from developers of all skill levels, though I have 3 or 4 open tasks particularly well suited to someone with intermediate skills. Two tasks about validating data shape and throwing good error messages: - https://github.com/MichaelDrogalis/onyx/issues/2 - https://github.com/MichaelDrogalis/onyx/issues/3 And two feature-level tasks: - Exposing a Java API: https://github.com/MichaelDrogalis/onyx/issues/1 - Creating a simple monitoring dashboard: https://github.com/MichaelDrogalis/onyx/issues/12 Takes a bit of learning about the project, but it's pretty cool stuff, and I'd be happy to help you along.
