Good First Issues

Good First Issue is initiative to curate easy pickings for first-time contributors. It helps you locate suitable development tasks with beginner’s skills required, and finally make your first contribution to Kyuubi.

After solving one or more good first issues, you should be able to

• Find efficient ways to communicate with the community and get help
• Setup develop environment on your machine
• Build Kyuubi from source
• Run tests locally
• Submit a pull request through Github
• Be listed in Apache Kyuubi contributors
• And most importantly, you can move to the next level and try some tricky issues

Note

Don’t linger too long at this stage.

Help Wanted Issues

Issues that maintainers labeled as help wanted are mostly

• sub-tasks of an ongoing shorthanded umbrella
• non-urgent improvements
• bug fixes for corner cases
• feature requests not covered by current technology stack of kyuubi community

Since these problems are not urgent, you can take your time when fixing them.

Note

Help wanted issues may contain easy pickings and tricky ones.
