Introduction

Hey Everyone, My name is Rachit Chawla and Its my first blog on dev.to. I am currently a student of Computer Programming and Analysis at Seneca College. Also I'm currently on my co-op term working as an Automation Developer at Ontario Public Service. In this role, I am currently working with PowerShell scripting and Microsoft Azure for automating every manual tasks to reduce workload and increase efficiency. This blog is a part of OSD600 course at Seneca College. I am taking this course as I am big fan of open source and always wanted to contribute in open source projects but I am unaware of proper documentation and standards used for open source contributions. I am hoping to learn all the required stuff by the end of this course and I aim to be one of the 15k contributors to Linux's repo by Linus Torvald. Open Source interests me because it gives developers the power to customise the application they want to use, also a chance to help others and improve their skills. I found https://github.com/TheAlgorithms/Python interesting from the Monthly trending feed on Github as it has all the algorithms which help us improve time complexity and write better codes. I has about 1000 contributors which helped to code all the algorithms in Python which may help others for working or learning purposes. I myself was a student of Data Structures and Algorithms in Python Winter 2023 and hoping to even able to contribute to this repo itself, once I learn more about documentation & proper standards to be followed.
