About good first issues, we have the following documentation: https://git.github.io/General-Microproject-Information/ There is also the microproject idea page from last year's GSoC: https://git.github.io/SoC-2022-Microprojects/ We haven't updated it for this year yet, so some ideas might be outdated. It might be a good idea anyway to discuss a bit your micro-project idea on the list when you have found one before starting to work on it. Thanks and welcome to the Git community, Christian.
