Hi everyone!
My name is Harsh Desai and I am a Computer Science student from India.
I am new to Open Source but I have experience with React.js and Java. I am really interested in the OpenMRS project, specifically the modern O3 frontend, because it aligns with my interest in building user interfaces.
My goal is to learn from the community and start contributing to beginner-friendly issues soon. Happy to be here!

My name is Rauf, I’m a backend Java developer from Azerbaijan. I work mainly with Java and Spring Boot on payment/banking systems (microservices, REST APIs, encryption, integrations with Visa/Mastercard, etc).
I’m very interested in contributing to OpenMRS long-term and also preparing for future GSoC participation, mainly on the Java backend side. I’ve just created my OpenMRS ID and I’m now setting up the development environment.
If you have suggestions for good first issues (especially backend-related), I’d be happy to hear them.
Thanks! Rauf
