Interested in contributing to Apache Airflow (Beginner in Data Science)
Hello Apache Airflow Community,
My name is Saddapalli Nitishkumar, and I am a recent B.Tech graduate.
I am new to data science and open-source development, and I would like to
start contributing to Apache Airflow.
I have some basic knowledge of Python and Git, and I’m eager to learn how
data pipelines and automation work.
Could you please guide me on how to get started and suggest any
beginner-friendly issues I can work on?
Thank you for your time and support!
Best regards,
S. Nitish Kumar

First of all, welcome to Airflow.
This
<https://github.com/apache/airflow/blob/main/contributing-docs/README.rst>
is the trimmed down quick start that Jarek mentions.
Nothing more to add, but Slack is the right place to start navigating your
path
by meeting like minded and Airflow loving people.
A channel that you should watch out for when you start is: #new-contributors
<https://apache-airflow.slack.com/archives/CCZRF2U5A>, you
can ask any setup related, or contribution related qns there or on
#airflow-breeze <https://apache-airflow.slack.com/archives/CQ9QHSFQX> if you
end up choosing breeze as your development tool.
Thanks & Regards,
Amogh Desai

Please follow the https://github.com/apache/airflow/contribute link. Follow
the onboarding steps in the docs linked from there. Join slack, look at
those "good first issues" (label in Github) and pick those you find
matching your skills and interest. Due to the number of contributors, in
Airflow we expect new contributors to self-guide themselves following the
(quite good and comprehensive) documentation. There is a new trimmed-down
quick-start so that you won't be intimidated by the size of the docs
(complete contributing guide is huge) - but take your time, and follow it,
and you should be good.
