Welcome to my blog!<\/p>\n

I am Avijeet Maurya and I’ll be a part of Google Summer of Code this year. This is great opportunity for me to learn some new things and work alongside some experienced people so I am really excited for this journey.<\/p>\n

In my first blog post I’d like to share my pre-GSoC experience with ScummVM. I had known about ScummVM for quite some time now so I immediately decided to try and see if I could participate as a contributor here. I had no experience with working on a codebase as big as ScummVM’s and I was very overwhelmed when I first cloned the repo and started going through it. Luckily there’s a very comprehensive resource<\/a> with a lot of helpful info on about everything you need to know as a beginner and I found myself referring to it a lot in the following weeks.<\/p>\n

I found an appropriate task to get me started with contributing to ScummVM and after a few weeks of coding I finally managed to finish it.<\/p>\n

Thanks to Jaderlund for suggesting the task!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

There were many problems I encountered along the way, the biggest being my lack of git knowledge which delayed my PR by quite some time but I received a lot of help from the ScummVM team, especially from DreamMaster who helped me a lot with this task.<\/p>\n

\"\"
Finally merged!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

My proposal for GSoC involves working on several engines which are already in ScummVM but with an incomplete implementation. I’ll be starting with continuing my work on the scott sub-engine to add support for more platforms and games to it. More details will be in the coming blog posts so look forward to those!<\/p>\n
