How to choose a good first issue

[vedantbharti]

@iamsr since I am new to open sourcing, can you help me with choosing good first issue. I have programming experience using c++ and elementary experience in python. I have currently started learning Java also. It would be of great help!

Hey @vedantbharti! As @sharif mentioned, do take a look at tickets labeled intro and have the complexity as low. This link searches for such unassigned issues.
