Contributions to Opensource

Hello Community.
My name is Mayank. I am currently currently a sophomore and starting out my opensource journey. Fount fortran on GSOC 2022 website and I must say it is fascinating. I would love to start my journey in opensource with fortran but I need a little guidance on how to start.
It would be awesome if someone will help me to start out.
Thank You!

Welcome Mayank to the Fortran Discourse and Fortran-lang community!

If you want to contribute to the flagship projects fpm, stdlib and Fortran website, there are “Contributing” links on this page:

If you want to contribute in the projects of the members of the community, many people have GitHub or GitLab repositories and will be happy to have a new contributor.

According to your knowledge and skills, you can contribute to small projects or big projects, even to the opensource compilers LFortran, GFortran or Flang (LLVM).

Another way to contribute is to translate the Fortran websites, documentation, etc.:

You can also improve the national Wikipedia Fortran pages:

Oh ok. This is interesting.
also I wanted to ask that is Fortan going to participate in GSOC 2023??

I guess, although the deadline is approaching and I have read no post about it.
Applications for organizations are open from today to 7th February:
