Hello @sergiolpzgmz ! Welcome to Fedora!
Before we begin, please subscribe to the Fedora join mailing list at fedora-join@lists.fedoraproject.org. We use this list for general discussion, and it is also where the community shares tasks that need help.
These links are a good read to begin with. They tell you what the Free/Open Source community is about, and then they'll introduce you to Fedora: what Fedora is all about, and what we do, and of course, how we do it:
Next, when you're ready, could you please introduce yourself (preferably on the list) so that the community can get to know you? (Interests, skills, anything you wish to say about yourself really).
Finally, could you let us know how you learned about the Fedora project? Was it from a colleague, or social media, for example?
If you have any questions at all, please ask! We'll use this ticket to keep in touch! :)
In addition, could you provide some information to understand your requirements better? (You can write them in the introduction, or answer here if you feel more comfortable).
For example:
your experience with Free/Open Source Software (FOSS) communities/ecosystems:
your background/skills, for example:
your experience in communication platforms:
how much time are you looking to/are you able to spend on volunteering (approximate hours per week)?
Remember that this is not a job interview at all. This is just an icebreaker to help all your new friends get to know you quicker. The better we know you, the better we can support you in identifying Fedora activities that promise to be relevant for you.
Please write how much/whatever you wish. :).
Hi, I currently have 1 year of experience as a software developer. This is the first time I participate in FOSS and I think it will be a very enriching experience, I hope to learn a lot from the Fedora open source community and contribute in areas such as infrastructure or any other area related to software development.
I currently use Fedora as my main operating system.
As for my knowledge in the area of software development, it is mainly Python Backend development with Flask and FastAPI, PostgreSQL database management, and also knowledge in Bash, CI/CD, Java, Springboot and Docker. For version control I feel comfortable working with Git, it is one of my main tools on a daily basis.
I never used mailing lists before but I think it's something simple and I can easily adapt to it. As a chat platform I'm currently using Element to connect to Matrix and Fedora channels.
Finally I think I could dedicate around 4 or 5 hours a week to volunteering.
Thanks!
