Hi @Kaustubh. Thank you for your interest in participating.

@eljamm left a thorough [message](https://matrix.to/#/!UyowkwYIGDZehLYkax:matrix.org/$8-dUbuNizlC_a6BVImGqu_EmlKMzd2WpcxaOmMWrPeE) in the [NGIpkgs](https://matrix.to/#/#ngipkgs:matrix.org) Matrix room, please refer to it for first steps. This year’s SoN will focus primarily on [NGI Forge](https://discourse.nixos.org/t/nix-ngi-ngi-forge-0-1-released/77213), and we’d therefore recommend to have a look at its [issues](https://github.com/ngi-nix/forge/issues) as well. And finally, please see [Nix@NGI project board](https://github.com/orgs/ngi-nix/projects/8) for a broader view of the project.

Let us know if you have further questions!
