Hi Michal, Thanks for your first contribution. I thought I'd let you (and others on this list who want to contribute to Mir but don't know where to start) know that there is an area which you might be able to contribute without knowing the internals of Mir, but would at the same time help you learn them, if you're interested.
We have deprecated some APIs on the client side of Mir, and are going through the process of moving downstream projects that depend on libmirclient onto alternative APIs that replace the deprecations. As understanding any complex system starts understanding its interfaces, the task will give you an opportunity to understand the client API which should make it easier to understand Mir as a whole. If you're interested here's a list of rdepends for libmirclient. Pick one and build it, if/when the compiler throws a warning/error about the deprecation, then replace it with the alternative mentioned in the message. When done, propose it to that project. libSDL-2 kodi glfw libcontent-hub0 libgtk-3-0 libqt5systeminfo5 libtrust-store2 libubuntu-app-launch3 pay-service qtdeclarative5-qtmir-plugin qtmir-android qtmir-desktop If you pick one up from the list, let me know which one so I can mark it off as 'assigned' so others don't need to work on it, too. Of course, if there are other areas which interest you more, we are always happy to receive your contributions.
