Ask HN: I want to contribute to a open source project, do you have a suggestion?

I want to gain some skills by contributing to an existing/a promising open source project and also increase productive use of my time.

Do you have a suggestion ?

What skills have you got? Have you joined the community on Slack or mailing list for something that you are interested in? Have you attended a meetup in your city?
I am familiar with Java, C++, C#, TypeScript, Python. My interest areas are async frameworks, open source DBs, not really excited about UX, but can manage it.

You could do a TypeScript change I've been meaning to do for a while now on an open source repo I use:

https://github.com/sourcegraph/sourcegraph

The change: When viewing a file, the copy icon should put the file's path in clipboard instead of the window's url.
