[Sugar-devel] GSoC 2018 Alexandru Mihai

[Utkarsh Tiwari]

Hi Alex,

I'd suggest you to try fixing a small issue or add a small feature to
existing GTK activities. Once you get a hang of the activity skeleton, you
can start migrating the activities to GTK3.

For a start I think this is a good place -
https://bugs.sugarlabs.org/query?status=new&status=assigned&status=accepted&status=reopened&component=Sugar&order=priority

But before that you need to setup the development environment -
https://github.com/sugarlabs/sugar/blob/master/docs/development-environment.md


Regards,
Utkarsh Tiwari
