My Name is Sparsh Kumar Jha, an undergraduate student at Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur (India) and I am a Computer and Mathematics enthusiast who knows 42 programming languages :D Checkout my LinkedIn Profile: [https://www.linkedin.com/in/sparshkrjha/ Sparsh Kumar Jha]. I had been fascinated by programming since I was 11; I have always believed that “coders are the sorcerers of the 21st century”. It conveys that they have the power to create tools for the upliftment of mankind and what better way to do so than open source contributions. | |||

My experience with open source is relatively small but it has been so exciting that I’ve been contributing to multiple projects once I got acquainted with the concept. It has been a steep learning curve for me. Open source contributions have made me realize the importance of documented and easy to understand the code. I intend to learn a lot of skills during my GSoC journey and will help me to get acquainted with the Open source development. | |||
