Good point. As mentioned, maybe the contribution guide is not enough, we also have the "low hanging fruit" tagged Jira that new contributors can take a look.

Maybe for both users and new contributors, it would be great to have additional concrete examples. Today, the game examples is great but mostly Java SDK focused and very "streaming" oriented.

We have additional samples (both batch and streaming) today with the Java SDK (https://github.com/jbonofre/beam-samples). If you think it could help, please let me know, I would be more then happy to cleanup and polish to prepare a PR.
We are also planning to add Python example there.

I agree with Pablo, it would be great if there is place someone new like me can go and find out what would be some good starting points to start contributing.

Apologies if there is such a place already somewhere, I would appreciate some directions in that case.

Thanks, Gaurav

    Some things that we have found working with our friends at IBM are:

    - No Python install from code documentation (which I've brought up
    before, and I believe is a known issue)
    - The process to pick up a JIRA is not very clear. It seems that
    there are a lot of implicit conventions (is discussion required? how
    do I know if I can start working on a jira?)

    Best

        Not sure if it was mentioned in other threads, but it probably
        makes sense to add gradle instructions there.

            There is a contribution guide at

            Has anyone had challenges / pain points when getting started
            with new contributions?
            Any suggestions for making this better?
