Hey Kush, Glad you are interested in the Packit project!
I am responding in a behalf of the Hunor (in CC), the task mentor since he's out for some days. Before we start, please read through the Google Summer of Code 2020 <https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/mentored-projects/gsoc/2020/> page on Fedora Docs, including all the references to the GSoC documentation from Google. This is important in order to make sure that you have a good understanding of the timeline and things that need to be done in that timeline. Since the Fedora organisation was officially approved on the 20th of February, you can start getting familiar with Packit and start working on your proposal. Here are some links, where you can start exploring: - Packit.dev <https://packit.dev/> website. You’ll find user facing and some architecture documentation here. Read through these to understand how the service and application work from a user point of view. - Packit Service GitHub organization <https://github.com/packit-service>. We have quite a few repositories here. Browse through them to understand their purpose and how they relate to each other. You should spend most of your time on getting familiar with packit <https://github.com/packit-service/packit>, packit-service <https://github.com/packit-service/packit-service>, ogr <https://github.com/packit-service/ogr>, deployment <https://github.com/packit-service/deployment> and dashboard <https://github.com/packit-service/dashboard>. Try to play with the code in these repositories, run the tests and maybe deploy the service on your machine. In order to prove your skills, I encourage you to contribute a change to one of these repositories, before the end of the application review period (April 27, 2020). You can either fix an issue you find while getting familiar with Packit, or you could look at some of the issues labelled good-first-issue. Note, that it’s not just code you can contribute, the team also welcomes and values improvements to the documentation. The goal for all the above is for you to learn enough about Packit so that you can come up with a meaningful project proposal as part of your application. As for staying in touch: email is the most reliable way, but you can also reach me/Hunor(@csomh) on Telegram (the Fedora Summer Coding group) or freenode in the #packit or #fedora-summer-coding channels. I’m usually online 8-17 UTC on weekdays, so we should be relatively quick in replying to pings during that period.
