Re: Interested in contributing to Avro C
Hi Avro Community.
I am new here and I am interested to contribute to open source project
and precisely Avro C.
I am in My second year in the university of Buea offering Computer A
Engineering in the Faculty of Engineering and Technology.
I have been coding in C ,c++. And I am good at C. I am interested in
The Avro C project so I am asking for help on some links so that I can
start gaining experience in the code base and improve on the C API.
Thanks and waiting to here from the community soon.

Hi
I will like to start by doing the documentation of the new C API
Version. As a project but first can someone help me links to
Documents on the legacy Version?
Thanks and Cheers.

Once more I can find Documents on the Legacy Version as you rightly
said and I have found no Document on The New Version. Can anyone help
me links to get material on the new version?

Also worth noting, it's extremely valuable for the community if folks
make new docs when they run into gaps.
In this case, Nges, you could document the new API while you were out using it.

Hi Nges,
I learned the C API by reading the code here: https://github.com/apache/avro/tree/trunk/lang/c
I would also recommend setting up some application that writes and reads avro files. Setting up simple applications using new libraries is one of the best ways to learn about them.
One suggestion for getting started with the C API is to use the new version of creating avro structs for serialization rather than the legacy version. Unfortunately most of the documentation that can be found is for the legacy version.
