@Nick_from_Texas I have a question: are you good at solving problems (like LeetCode)? I want to know if it makes a difference when it comes to getting accepted or not.
People who want to start contributing to open source:
- Pick an Org based on your interest
- Fork the repository
- Clone it
- Do the local setup
- Read README and contributing .md
- Pick an issue
- Create a new branch
- Fix the issue
- Write tests (if necessary)
- Test it
- Add, Commit & Push the code
- Go to GitHub & raise that PR
That's pretty much it. Start small and learn as you go.
