Hey, I want to start contributing to some good open source projects in android, mainly Kotlin/Kotlin Multiplatform and compose related projects. I have been working in android for around 6 years. Please suggest some good beginner friendly projects to start with.
Thanks in advance!

Arrow is pretty good! We'd love more test coverage for instance. Also, some of the lesser used list-handling methods might have some bugs in them (more recently I think crosswalk was discovered to be wrong). In general, we have some legacy list code that uses foldRight that really should be updated to be more Kotlin-y.
I'd be happy to help to find you specific issues to contribute to!

@CLOVIS also has some really good KMP projects! They have very clear guidelines on how to contribute, and the maintainers are very helpful in my experience!

Feel free to contribute to my projects. 😄

https://github.com/StefanOltmann/mines for example.

https://github.com/StefanOltmann/oni-seed-browser is not exactly mobile friendly right now. If you like, see what you can do. 😉

In general you can look at #C0BJ0GTE2 what nice projects are out there and lend a helping hand.

https://github.com/schott12521/compose-cupertino for example could surely need help.

https://github.com/kdroidFilter/ComposeMediaPlayer is one of my favourite projects you could look into.

TL;DR: There are a lot of open source projects and most are happy for contributions. See their READMEs.

Hey!

We have a few different kinds of projects, if you find one interesting: https://opensavvy.dev/libraries/index.html

We have guides for contributing to open source (tailored specifically to our needs but most maintainers have a similar workflow): https://opensavvy.dev/open-source/index.html#contributing-to-open-source-projects

Don't hesitate to get in touch if you have any questions
