Hello Everyone!! Myself Vivek Kumar Sahu, sophomore(at the time of writting this blog) in Electronics and Telecommunication from Jabalpur Engineering College, India. My field of interests are cloud based technology as well as Linux world. I started exploring all these technologies just after Lockdown started and continued learning Linux and cloud-based technologies. After learning wanted to apply my knowledge and skills through some projects. Then i came to know that best way to make use of your skills and knowledge is by contributing to some open source project or by working in a company. But, being a student open source would be good choice. From there open source took place in my mind. Seriously, if you are complete beginner then 1-2 months you have to roam around the projects, meetings, slack channels, etc. And once you have understanding about the projects then you have to roam around the code written in those projects. It's not easy in the beginning but later on it is. After exploring different projects from CNCF, I came across a Sandboxed project known as Kyverno. And it was my right decision to pick the Kyverno project for contribution. For newbie contributor this is one of the good project to start their contribution with it and the reason behind it:- Firstly, the Kyverno policies written for Kubernetes resources are written in the same language(i.e. YAML) as the resource manifest written in the Kubernetes. And secondly, easy to relate different concepts of Kubernetes while applying different types of policies for different resources. So, it looks quite a relatable project with my skills.
During internship, I had to work on feature enhancement and it was To extend the test command to support or handle mutate Policy and also To cover all sample policies. The same reaction I also had earlier after reading this project headline. Didn't understand anything. So, the recommendation to newbie contributors that the best way to understand any project is to read the documentation first and then install that project in your local machine and try to use it, play with it until and unless you get the feel about that project.
