Hi team, I'm looking to improve my C++ skills (currently only know some basics) with real world projects, came across Typesense yesterday and it sounds like an awesome project that you guys have here! Is there any "good-first-issue" (or similar) that I can start looking into? Thank you 😊

Hi Alex 👋 happy to guide you here. May I know what OS you use for your primary development?

Hi @Kishore Nallan , thank you for your reply! I’m on Windows, and I haven’t had much experience with open source projects before so hope you don’t mind some “noob” questions coming your way 😬

Typesense does not build on Windows, unfortunately. I'm afraid you need to use either Linux or the windows linux sub-system, but I don't know if WSL has any quirks for doing actual development in terms of using linux versions of gcc toolchain etc.

Mostly because some of the libraries we use are probably Linux specific.

Ahh, I see, thank you for explaining that in details! I'll see what I can do and come back for more questions in the future when I have a Linux environment setup 😊
