I think I will start to contribute in a few weeks/months. A few concerns;

-I have never contributed to a project before. I know the base protocol is “grab a bug” but I’d love some additional suggestions.

-I have _much_ more experience with Python and CPP than Go. Of course I will do a bunch of reading but if there are any specific areas I should focus on please let me know.

Best
