-CP2K is a large project, there is no way to study the full code, and start when that is done! Start working on small patches first, that are easy to code, to test and to integrate. Small patches are easier to review and thus will be more quickly merged to the Git master branch. As experience with the code grows, tackling larger projects becomes realistic. Developers that regularly contribute can sign up to the [[https://lists.cp2k.org/listinfo/cp2k-dev | CP2K developer mailing list]].+CP2K is a large project, there is no way to study the full code, and start when that is done!
