2020-06-14 15:46:15 UTC - sundar: Hi @Sijie Guo , if you remember my friend and I are college students who used pulsar for our final year project which is completed successfully, thanks for the advice and help. We now want to do our contributions to pulsar as it helped us a lot. This is the first time we are trying to contribute to an open source project. What is your recommendation for starting off? We tried to read the issues(starter issues) in the issues page but most of them seemed like documentation.

You can also check out the <https://github.com/apache/bookkeeper|bookkeeper project> which pulsar uses as it's storage layer. It's got lots of stuff going on and we could use all the interest we get.
