Hello,
I'm new to inkscape and would like to contribute. I'm really interested to work with css and vector graphics. So how should I start?
I'm also looking up to GSOC 2014 and perhaps do a project. Where should I get the latest news regarding it like the list of projects, mentors etc.?
Hello Kartik, Welcome :-)
Did you manage to checkout the source code and compile/build trunk?
You can start with something small that interests you (perhaps you've found a bug that you want to fix?). That way, you can get familiar with a small part of the source code (don't start reading random code files!) and get a better feel for how programming on Inkscape works. Then when you are more familiar with the codebase, you can have a look at GSoC projects (you can some project suggestions on our wiki).
regards, Johan
