Re: [gephi-dev] Interest in contributing to Gephi

[Mathieu Bastian]

Hey Keheliya,

Welcome! I'm happy you want to contribute to Gephi, there is many ways
to improve the current software or the ecosystem. Fixing bugs is a
great way to start coding. Go ahead and please don't hesitate to ask
questions about how to have the proper dev environment or the exiting
code.

Looking forward your first bug patch :-)

Mathieu
