About yourself

Hello there! I'm Daniel, but everyone calls me Dani.

I've been working as a Machine learning/Backend engineer for the past 10 years. Most of my experience is in Python, but I did some backend development in Golang. I am actually quite interested in helping and learn something new, thus I would be happy to get my hands on some Golang, Rust, or Ruby codebase.

I've been lately using NixOS as my daily OS. Just saying, in case it is relevant for something. Furthermore, I used to have two Raspberry Pi running NixOS to serve my personal server. Previously, I used Docker with docker-compose for this.

Motivation

I just came back from a career break (currently looking for a job), and I want to try something new while engaging with the FOSS community. I think Codeberg might be the perfect place for it, and l will take a look at the different open issues over the next days.

To summarize:

Interests

  • Rust, Golang, Ruby, Python
  • Nix package manager
  • Writing docs is always boring, but I like that things are well documented. I can help with Spanish.

Skills

  • Python (FastAPI, Django, Sqlalchemy)
  • PostgreSQL
  • Using NixOS for the last year
  • Basic to intermediate knowledge of Kubernetes
  • Spanish is my native language

Anyway, while you read this, if you think there is a place where I might fit in, let me know!

Interests

  • Software development
  • Community support
  • Public Relations
  • Infrastructure
  • Organization (team meetings, events etc)
  • Other (see text above)

Quick checks

  • I… work on a project on my own
  • … join an existing team
  • … start something new
  • … learn something for yourself
  • … dedicate a steady amount of time
  • … work on a project for a limited period

I tried to join Matrix using the Readme link, and it didn't work.

I think the Readme link needs to change from:

- http://matrix.to/#/#contributing-to-codeberg:kle.li
+ http://matrix.to/#/#contributing-to-codeberg:matrix.org

It's the first time I used matrix, so I'm not sure, but using the link I found in the contact page, I was able to join the Codeberg space.

Hey, sorry for the delay; is there any project that might be of interest to you that you might have noticed so far? (Forgejo, Pages Server, etc.) :)

Hey @n0toose, I looked into Forgejo, but I did not go further than just cloning the repo and running the unit tests. Actually, I would like to help with the new pages server if that is possible. I'm completely new to Rust, but happy to learn.

Thank you so much @n0toose for your guidance. And thank you so much @crapStone for the repo access. I will say hello at Matrix and take a look at the repo as soon as I have some time.

Hello, I got a bit busy with other things in life. But I still want to contribute. I will try to do so before the end of the year.

@n0toose @crapStone Thanks to both of you. I know there are no expectations. After opening this issue, I disappeared and i felt like ghosting. Just wanted to share codeberg still in my mind 😁
