Hello, I am Mahesh from India. I am interested in doing Google Season of Docs with NumPy on the project HIGH-LEVEL RESTRUCTURING AND END-USER FOCUS - NumPy I have past experience in documentation writing with WordPress and have completed *Google Summer of Code 2018 *with KDE. I have been an open source enthusiast and contributor since 2017.My past experience with coding ,code documentation , understanding code bases ,will help achieve this task without much input from your end. I have about four years experience working with Open-Source and currently working as a *Quality Assurance specialis*t . I have delivered technical talks at international conferences (KDE-Akademy) and was *mentor of Google Code-In* also. All these makes me the best candidate for the project. I am attaching a brief proposal for the work along with this mail. A more in-depth A more in depth proposal with timelines , all planned strategies , document structures will be submitted after more discussion with the mentors and community.

Open for contribution
by Anthony Le Goff 07 May '21

07 May '21

Hi, I'm Anthony from Brest, Brittany, France. I've done my first PR for a documentation fix, and i'm still learning the workflow of github. I'm looking for to participate a open source project, i'm also a free software enthousiast. I discovered numpy while I try to find a solution in engineering computational science for hobbyist to replace MATLAB where i'm against the politic of licensing. I have a degree in mechanical & design engineering and i'm a self-taugh programmer. I'm still learning python and i know the language C. I get some knowledge in system administration in linux. I hope i can help to contribute on the code or the documentation. I never try to change a piece of code in a project, it would be my first time. I'm little bit confuse to do something wrong with a shitty code and broke something. I thing it is normal just try. My next step after python is learning data structure and algorithm then design pattern. I large program and i do that alone on my free time. I'm looking for a full time jobs also. I've seen numpy library is also coded in C. It's a good point to my knowledge. I was looking for some "first issue" but i'm not sure it's easy with 27 comments after 5 years on some issues. I'm open for large project to get experience in programming. Regards Anthony Le Goff

Hello, folks! I've added a new event to the NumPy community calendar: the Newcomer's Hour. This is an event we've been running for a few months and is a bi-weekly informal meeting for newcomers to the NumPy community. This is a place to ask questions, technical or otherwise, meet other contributors, and (hopefully) figure out how to contribute :) We are having one today at 8pm UTC - here's the zoom link: https://zoom.us/j/6345425936. To follow all the events and meetings related to NumPy and add them to your own Google calendar, you can use this link: https://calendar.google.com/calendar/r?cid=YmVya2VsZXkuZWR1X2lla2dwaWdtMjMy… Cheers!
