Unfortunately I couldn't make any progress fixing an issue for the Sympy repository these couple days. This is the first time for me trying to make a contribution to an open source community. Is it normal that I get overwhelmed and can't make any progress? I really would like to contribute to Sympy with GSoC, however due to my lack of knowledge I feel like i'm not going to be able to make any contribution before submission date. I read and played with github workflow and experimented with sympy for a couple days however it seems that my lack of knowledge for OOP is lacking. What would be the recommendation for me to start developing and doing a proposal for GSoC? I checked the github issues that are related to my area of interest in which you guys recommended me, however they seem like undoable at the moment.
