Hello Plone Community,
My name is Saurabh Singh, and I am a 2nd-year student with a strong background in MERN stack development. I have experience working with React, Node.js, Express, MongoDB, and I have also explored authentication tools like Clerk and backend frameworks like Strapi.
I am very interested in contributing to Google Summer of Code (GSoC) 2025 with Plone, particularly in projects related to React and Python, as I have a keen interest in frontend and backend development. Some of the listed projects, such as "Keyword Manager for Volto," "GUI for Import/Export," and "Volto Themes," sound exciting to me.
I would love to get started by understanding more about the best way to set up Plone for development and explore the contribution workflow. Could you please guide me on:
- What are the first steps I should take to get familiar with Plone’s codebase and Volto?
