Hey, I hope everything is going well.

Matrix: *@laotze:fedora.im <http://fedora.im>*

I'm *Laotze*, a fresh computer engineering graduate. I briefly used Fedora
38 Workstation, since then my daily driver has been Fedora i3 spin. I'm an
avid reader, and also like to write. I do have a personal blog, but I am
also contemplating the idea of documenting my professional journey and
thoughts. I speak Spanish natively, Portuguese, and my German is growing
each day.

*Tools, experience and what I'd like to learn*

   - Python (Django, Flask, SQLAlchemy, sockets, Pytest, unittest, Tkinter,
   os, PyInstaller)
   - HTML, CSS, and Javascript
   - RESTful API
   - PostgreSQL, SQLite
   - Git
   - Bash

I worked for my university in the IT department while I was getting my
degree. At the time the ticketing system was paper based, so I decided to
make my final year project based on that problematic. I developed a system
called SISA using sockets library, tkinter for GUI, PostgreSQL as database,
and PyInstaller for the executables. Besides that project, I worked daily
as IT. I've been sharpening my backend skills through two web applications,
a blog and a prompting generator for writing.

I don't have a specific area I'd like to get involved in. I feel I still
have a lot of things to learn about, later something may catch my eye.

*Goals*

   - *Be part of and contribute to Fedora's community.*


   - *Familiarize myself with the workflow of Infrastructure.* I have no
   idea where I could help, it feels a bit daunting. I have been reading the
   tickets, the map of critical services, about each app, and I'm yet to read
   the sysadmin and developer guide. So I believe familiarizing myself with
   the workflow would make contributing easier.


   - *Learn as much as I can. *I believe one can achieve a great deal
   independently. However, it is through community that we truly get to grow
   as people and professionals, sharing experiences, knowledge, and opinions.

*Initial Questions*

   - What things can I do to know how the team works? Besides reading the
   docs and attending the meetings
   - Is there anything would you recommend learning to facilitate
   participation in Infrastructure? Be it tools, concepts, or anything that
   comes to mind
   - What advice would you give? You could answer this in a professional or
   personal way. I see it as a way to get to know you better and share wisdom

I wasn't sure if I was expected to talk more personally about myself. I'd
be more than happy to answer any questions through email or a DM on Matrix.
Thank you for your time, and I'm looking forward to working with everyone.

*Laotze de Abreu*
