Hi everyone,
I am new to the OpenMRS community and excited to join you all. My name is James and I am eager to learn more about OpenMRS and contribute where I can.

Could anyone guide me on the best practices for asking questions and where to post different types of queries ?
Looking forward to connecting and collaborating with you all.
Thanks, James

Hello OpenMRS Community, My name is hillary derrickson and I am excited to join this incredible community of developers and healthcare enthusiasts. I am currently a final year student pursuing a degree in computer science from Catholic University of Eastern Africa. Throughout my academic journey, I have developed a strong passion for software development. I have gained experience in various programming languages such as flutter, javascript and python, and I have worked on projects involving web development, mobile app development and database management. I am particularly drawn to OpenMRS because of its mission to improve healthcare delivery in resource-constrained environments through open-source software. I believe that technology can play a transformative role in healthcare, and I am eager to contribute my skills and learn from the experienced members of this community. Here are a few specific areas I am interested in exploring and contributing to within OpenMRS:
1.Module Development: Enhancing existing modules or developing new ones to improve functionality and user experience. 2.Bug Fixing and Code Review: Contributing to the stability and reliability of the platform by identifying and resolving issues. 3.Documentation: Helping to create clear and comprehensive documentation for developers and users to facilitate easier onboarding and usage of OpenMRS.
