About yourself

Hi, I am Yeo Wen Qin (PS for the Asian name), but you can call me WQMan.

I am currently still a Software Engineering university student, but I have been working as a full-stack developer and system administrator for 3 years.

For me, I have been wanting to engage with and contribute to the FOSS community for quite some time. I encountered Codeberg a few months ago and decided to shift to it. Seeing as code repositories are one of the things I commonly use, and I do want to contribute to FOSS, I felt like contributing to Codeberg.

For system-related skill sets:

Cloud infrastructure / on-prem infrastructure; primarily Proxmox for on-prem solutions
Kubernetes
Linux
DevOps; have experience with GitLab and GitHub CI/CD
Database management; primarily with PostgreSQL, MySQL, and Microsoft SQL

For software development skill sets:

React & React Native
Svelte
Django
Spring Boot
Android development
Game development; Unity 3D and Godot, if that helps lol.

I am fluent in English, but I can communicate in Chinese as well.

I am expecting to be able to help out for 3–8 hours a week, depending on my university schedule.

As for projects/ideas I could help out with, I am generally interested in most IT stuff. I do not mind picking up a new programming language or framework as well.

My matrix ID is @wqman:matrix.org

Interests

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

Quick checks

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

Hi, thank you for reaching out!

There is currently a pending pull request that translates our official documents in Chinese (unofficially), but we don't know of anyone that can help us review it: Codeberg/org#1230/
- Additionally, there is a pending ToU change: Codeberg/org#1219
I am not really into the hardware aspects, but is there any software-related project of Codeberg that catches your eye?

Feel free to join our Matrix room if you wish to chat further, if possible. :)

Sure, will take a look at the Chinese translations on the weekends in my free time.

For software-related projects, which ones would you recommend that are in need of help? I will probably need some time to get up to speed as well, since I am not that familiar with Go or Rust.

I'd say everything needs a bit of help, so it largely depends on what you're interested in. But the most interesting one might be Forgejo.

I personally learned Go by contributing. We're here to learn and there isn't a particular rush; you can also ask others if you are stuck with something or need help. (Our chatroom helps! :D)
