Hey Gimhana Good to have you on board, I’m sure as Imesha has been through the GSOC process he can help you with anything related to that end. Other than that feel free to pick up one of the GSOC topics and we can dive into what needs to be done and what the desired outcomes are.

As you may already know, we are planning to offer 2 GSoC projects [1] this year which we think are the most important at the moment. Since you have experience in React, Java and hopefully some knowledge on containerization, you will be able to help one of those projects for sure. The community will be really happy to see your contribution. Thanks for your PR as well. I will look at it soon. On getting started, did you try running OODT? In brief, OODT have 3 main components, File Manager [2] (for information integration), a Resource Manager [3] (managing resources and scheduling jobs) and a workflow manager to execute workflows. In addition to that, there are other components like crawler (for crawling and ingesting crawled documents to file manager), OPSUI (the main dashboard of a OODT deployment which shows status of each component and ingested files, workflows etc) and a set of REST APIs. You can refer file manager user guide [5] to get an idea of file manager. If you want to run all the components at once, you can use the docker container [6]. If you prefer more hands on experience, try the RADiX [7] build. Try to play around a bit to get an understanding of the usage of OODT since it is more of a framework rather than a product. When you play around, if you encounter anything you don't understand, feel free to ask. If you encounter any issue please create an issue in JIRA. If you can, try to fix it yourself to get familiarized with the code base. The above steps will be a good starting point as I don't see any newcomer type issue in Jira to let you work on immediately.
