I would recommend a project that has you working at the LLVM IR
level. Fixing bugs or adding a new analysis or optimization pass
may be a good project.<br>
<br>
Another good project might be to improve our documentation. I've
noticed over the years that most of our documents are reference-like
in manner. When I start teaching students how to use LLVM, I direct
them to three difference documents. It might be good to have a
"Getting Started with Programming with LLVM" guide to help new
students learn how to get started with using the infrastructure.<br>

</span> Have you looked through the Open Projects page at

Have you worked with LLVM or one of its related
