Hey all, I am a new user here at Inkscape and don't know what to do. I want to contribute to this projects as a developer; can anyone help me out where to start. Thanks in advance
Dear Gagan,
The first step is to download the inkscape branch to your computer and make sure you can compile it. The specifics depend on your operating system but can all be found on the website:
http://inkscape.org/en/develop/getting-started/
I'd actually start by playing with the code base first, then after you've modified a few things (and reverted) you can pick a few bugs to fix.
You can either submit a merge-request via launchpad or a patch file in the bug report. Both will count towards your code count. Ask here if you get stuck with anything or if the website is unclear (it's new).
And good luck!
Best Regards, Martin Owens
