Hope to join the Airflow community to develop the support of Alibaba
Cloud
Dear Manager,
Thanks for reading my letter!
I am now working in the Alibaba company.
I am the new of Airflow but after two-days learning I found it really power.
I saw it has support of AWS and Google Cloud but doesn’t have the Alibaba Cloud support.
So I wanna do that stuff and really hope to join the Airflow community.
Hope to get your reply.
Best wishes
Mingyang

Welcome Mingyang! Agree with everything XD and Jarek said, and I also
suggest that if you want to start with something, start with whatever
aspect of Alibaba cloud you need most - you don't have to do it all at
once! Just the addition of integration with a single service can help, and
it's best to start with what you know/need.

Yeah, and regarding groups/community - here you will find all the links
https://airflow.apache.org/community/ so you can start there.
Agree with XD - some critical mass should be reached with people who can
test it with Alibaba as I think currently we are not really familiar here I
am afraid.
After you join slack - I just created a channel in slack #airflow-alibaba
(similar to #airlfow-gcp, #airflow-aws) - I think your best bet is to query
there and ask people if they will be able to join it and start some
discussion/work.

Hi Mingyang,
A NUS alumni here :)
Thanks for your interest in contributing to Airflow.
What I would suggest are (and I guess most folks would suggest similarly):
- Read the documentation to get yourself started, including the
Airflow's doc & the doc for Contributors (Contributor's Quick Guide
<https://github.com/apache/airflow/blob/main/CONTRIBUTORS_QUICK_START.rst>).
These docs help you know the practices the community is adopting, and how
you can make it easier for people to review your PRs.
- Given the topic you are interested in is quite specific, as you have
already pointed out, you have existing AWS and GCP providers as nice
examples (Amazon Provider package
<https://airflow.apache.org/docs/apache-airflow-providers-amazon/stable/index.html>,
GCP Provider package
<https://airflow.apache.org/docs/apache-airflow-providers-google/stable/index.html>).
Source code, IMHO, is the best textbook/guide if you want to make code
contributions.
A "difficulty" I can foresee is: such providers are literally "wrappers"
around the Cloud Service API. I'm not sure how many people are familiar
enough with the Alibaba Cloud API. You will need to make a bit
more effort to provide the correct resource (like documentation links) in
your PRs, I believe.
Regards,
XD

I think I need some support and knowledge because I think my ability cannot achieve this goal. Is there any group or community to join? Maybe I need some help...

There are no managers here. Airflow is developed by the community. If you wish to add Alibaba provider - feel free to make PRs to do that.
