I'm a software developer with 40 years' professional experience, lucky enough to be considering early retirement. I love writing code and don't want to stop. I'm keen to give something back and contribute to one or more open source projects.

The questions are, to what shall I contribute, and how do I get started?

My skills are mainly C++, having spent much of the past decade programmatically dismantling and reassembling Microsoft Office files. I'm quite happy to learn Rust or Go, but don't really like webby front-endy ux stuff.

Any suggestions for a worthy project to which I could contribute? Please boost if you can.

If you just want to see it in Practice with fancy graphs on how much you can improve startup and warmup times, start on minute 28!

Some 🌳💞 for RPM Spec

TL;DR I wrote a tree-sitter parser for RPM Spec and it finally is in a state where it could be used 🙂
