as per my discussion yesterday, running ./script/compile_resources.sh before npm install messes up the css/js/web interface. any pointers on how I can generate them (ui) correctly?

I have tried npm install; compile_resources.sh again but no dice.. it is not generating the css/js files, bitmap any pointers?
nikunj_, so what you are saying is, you have experience in algorithms but not development?

nikunj_, if Development/Summer_of_Code/Getting_started isn't enough to help you get started, please re-read the last two sentences :-)

You're doing good work, CallerNo6!

CallerNo6 admits that at the beginning, it's hard to figure out how to ask the right question(s)l.

you create a github account, fork a project and edit the code so that it does the things you want

can anyone suggest some projects which would have some easy issues in which I can contribute
2017-02-23 05457, 2017
CallerNo6
nikunj_, do you mean specifically MetaBrainz projects?
2017-02-23 05435, 2017
nikunj_
Yes , I have good experience in python so I was particularly thinking of ListenBrainz
2017-02-23 05403, 2017

But the problem is I am not able to understand the issues
2017-02-23 05435, 2017

nikunj_: Note that the "getting started" page specifically lists some non-development/code things to do before actually starting to code.

you should probably start by contributing data to MusicBrainz, seeing as most of the other projects are related to it in some way or another

CallerNo6: Maybe the "Get involved" section should go before the "Get inspired" one?
2017-02-23 05456, 2017
Freso
Since the "Get inspired" part asks them to look for tickets for software they may not be familiar with until they "Get involved"?

Freso, yeah, I went back and forth on that. "Get involved" kinda depends on which project(s) you're interested in.
2017-02-23 05439, 2017
Freso
Well, unless you're doing something on with BookBrainz you need to deal with MBIDs and MB data.
2017-02-23 05454, 2017
Freso
So you need to understand at some level what the different entities are.
