Week 6

Future Project

Honestly, I am inexperienced enough that most projects should be about the same level of challenge. I am familiar with C and have some experience with C++ and Python, so something written in those languages would be nice. Obviously, a lack of specific technical skills will be in my way; however, I am most afraid of my inexperience in working on an actual, serious technical project. How does its structure work? Where would I even be able to contribute, etc.? But either way, there is only one way to gain experience. Probably the main way I would be able to contribute (if no one else wants to) is by taking the initiative to organize meetings, figure out when everyone is free, and start discussions. Hopefully, I will be helpful!

Small Contributions

For personal contributions, I’ve mainly been updating content on WikiPidia. I have a strong knowledge of the history of contemporary fashion, so I have a lot of information to share with the world. The contribution I am most proud of is publishing the fact that Ann Demeulemeester’s first collection was purchased instantly, which is a pretty important piece of information. Otherwise, I’ve tried to contribute to the course website; however, I somehow didn’t realize there are probably some guidelines on how to do that properly, so my PR got closed. However, since then, I published an issue (hopefully) properly following the instructions.
