Hi everyone!
@peterhoeg, I’m Shoaib, and I’m new to the NixOS community. I’m applying for the Outreachy internship and excited to learn more about Nix and systemd. I have some experience with Linux and programming, but I’m still getting familiar with Nix.

I’d like to introduce myself properly—could someone guide me to the right place on Discourse to do that? Also, I’m working on my first contribution and would appreciate any tips!

Looking forward to contributing and learning from everyone here!

Hi @samimshoaib01 and welcome! I think this is an alright place, and @-mentioning the people you like to notify is the right way to get their attention. @moderators can still move threads as needed.

Here’s a similar question on how to start contributing, and the answer is similar to what’s posted on the Outreachy community description: How to start contributions to Summer of Nix - #2 by fricklerhandwerk

Please open issues on nix.dev if you run into any trouble with the tutorials!
