Dear Sir/Mam, I am Sai Harsh B.Tech 4th year student from India, I want to contribute to inkspace. Could you please guide me how I can proceed. My technical skills are moderate in Python and C. My work experience can support this statement, I was T.A for Data structures and Algorithms for 1st and 2nd year undergraduate student respectively. I did my internship in MIT media lab in which most of my code is in Python.
I am ready to learn new things.
Awaiting for your response.
Best Regards, Harsh

Hi Harsh, I'm not a developer myself, so I can't offer you any personal advice. But while you're waiting for developers to respond, I thought I would point you to the Inkscape website, where you can find a lot of info about Inkscape and developing Inkscape.
Specifically the Contribute and Develop menus will be helpful if you want to contribute code, but you might find any of it interesting :-)
All best, brynn

Hi,
I am Sai Harsh B.Tech 4th year student from India, I want to contribute to inkspace. Could you please guide me how I can proceed.
I'd say the first thing to do is to make sure you are able to distinguish the ‘Inkscape’ program or project and an ‘InkSpace’ storing user resources. Programming needs some rigour.
Then you'll find some info on the website in the Develop menu (just as Brynn said), and also on the wiki (linked from the Develop page).
From there, it depends on your wishes…
My technical skills are moderate in Python and C.
If you want to add some feature to the program, you might be able to do it by making an extension with Python code. Inkscape itself uses C++. Learn the basics of OOP, and then you should be able to understand the code and start hacking. As the website says: ‘grab the code and start hacking on whatever draws your attention.’
My work experience can support this statement, I was T.A for Data structures and Algorithms for 1st and 2nd year undergraduate student respectively. I did my internship in MIT media lab in which most of my code is in Python.
The tasks concerning the program are gathered on the bug tracker: https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape You can of course add your own report/request.
Thanks for your offer, don't hesitate if you have any more questions, and happy hacking! -- Sylvain
