Hi Jose, I hope you're doing well. I'd recommend that you start by familiarizing yourself with the following links:
- Beam contribution guide - https://github.com/apache/beam/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md - Beam yaml overview - https://beam.apache.org/documentation/sdks/yaml/ - Beam yaml docs - https://beam.apache.org/releases/yamldoc/current/ - Existing yaml examples - https://github.com/apache/beam/tree/master/sdks/python/apache_beam/yaml/examples - Beam website source - https://github.com/apache/beam/tree/master/website This should give you a good idea of how Beam generally functions, what Beam yaml is, and how to get started.
