Hi everybody, I'm a junior software engineer at Nuxeo. My company has a lot of Java code written in GWT (~100k lines), which brings me here. I'm curious and eager to learn more about GWT, and ready to contribute in my spare time. I've already started to learn GWT and brought small improvements to the GWT website [1][2]. However, before going further, I'd like to know: how to contribute to GWT?
I took a look at Manuel's slide "GWT Contributor Workshop" [3] and the official page "Making GWT Better" [4]. They're very helpful, but more about workflow explanation, environment setup, and making the patch correct. I'd like to know what are the right subjects to get started. Otherwise, there's a list of issues in GitHub, but there're no label for newbies, e.g. "good first issue", so I definitely need your guidance... Personally, I like any related to Java compilation, type, and test. Before joining Nuxeo, I participated to Google Summer of Code 2016. I contributed to Hibernate Search, a layer on top of Hibernate ORM for search, by adding module `jsr352` for batch indexing data [5].
