<div dir="ltr">Hi Alex,<br><br>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.<br><br>For a start I think this is a good place - <a href="https://bugs.sugarlabs.org/query?status=new&status=assigned&status=accepted&status=reopened&component=Sugar&order=priority">https://bugs.sugarlabs.org/query?status=new&status=assigned&status=accepted&status=reopened&component=Sugar&order=priority</a><br><br>But before that you need to setup the development environment - <a href="https://github.com/sugarlabs/sugar/blob/master/docs/development-environment.md">https://github.com/sugarlabs/sugar/blob/master/docs/development-environment.md</a> <br><br>Regards,<br>Utkarsh Tiwari</div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr">On Wed, 14 Feb 2018 at 10:58 Walter Bender <<a href="mailto:walter.bender@gmail.com">walter.bender@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_extra"><div class="gmail_quote">On Tue, Feb 13, 2018 at 3:45 PM, Alex Cosmin Mihai <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:alexcosmin.mihai@gmail.com" target="_blank">alexcosmin.mihai@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div><div>Hello!<div><br></div><div>My name is Alexandru Mihai (irc handle: alex_mihai) and I am a second year student at Faculty of Automatic Control and Computer Science at University Politehnica of Bucharest, Romania.
