    I'd say the first step is to not get overwhelmed by the just looking at repository at first,
    don't be afraid of all the .eslintrc or any dot files or json, yaml most of them small files just for some configuration actually a lot of those big files you see are kinda basic and around 30-40% of the codebase is actually something you wouldn't understand.

    The answer starts at 5:45. TDLW; don't need to read the whole codebase, just need an idea of how and where things are. Start with test cases.

    to sum up the 7 and a half minute video - you don't have to understand large codebases, read through test cases and there is no shortcut to hard work

    @cuddle484 2 года назад +4

    I think you can give an example. how did you write the test case for a bug/reproduce a bug, then go through the code path step by step, how basically you analyse it, then come up with a fix. Actually a lot of people could not understand this part. They think a lot and can not do anything..how to put your feet forward, do it to analyze it.
    But thank you for this amazing content.

  • @vaibhavvashist238
    @vaibhavvashist238 2 года назад +15

    So the key point is to understand large codebases we have to understand the testcases,we can build the project in our system and have a basic understanding of every file in a project.

    • @GJen24

      That's where I'm having difficulty contributing right now. I understand the code perfectly. I'm able to find and fix bugs, but then to put the finishing touches on it to make sure that everything is good by both running the program and testing the code is not at all straight forward because unlike when you're learning and it's a small program that can be easily tested, I'm having difficulty figuring out how to run the program to check the part of the code I'm fixing and how to test it. I use pytest. I wonder if something else would work better for me. I've tried compartmentalizing the code so that I can just focus on the part of the code that I want to change but many times a single function may have an effect on several other functions and other parts of the program and it may accept arguments from other functions and other parts of the program as well so trying to fix a single function in a vacuum seems impossible but the alternative seems to lead you down a rabbit hole where you're having to check a hundred different parts of the program just to fix one function and all to find out at the last function you needed to check it requires some data to work properly that you can't easily or readily duplicate. I've hit a wall and I'm coming up against this same problem again and again in every project I try to contribute to. Finding the bug and fixing it is easy and then trying to make sure there aren't any unwanted effects from my changes by running the code and testing the code for me is the part that I know has to be an easier way than the way I'm going about it. I can't find any info related to my problem. If anyone has any suggestions where I can look on youtube or stackoverflow or where I can learn to get a better grasp for how to deal with this problem it will be much appreciated. Thank you.

      You are wrong, with this mindset you'll never be able to contribute. Every student has this mindset that is why I don't make more Open Source videos because no one is willing to work. I did this as a beginner, period.

    Thank you very much. I am trying to contribute to VS Code for like two years. I use VS Code a lot and also I have experience with the technologies it uses. But still I find the project very complicated. Now I understand it. The project is supposed to be complicated. That is why it is divided into smaller modules. So I have to get into one of the those small ones and start contributing. Thank you very much. It is very hard to find someone explaining these things ❤
