[cfe-dev] [GSOC 2018] Mentors and projects needed! Any help appreciated.

[Dean Michael Berris via cfe-dev]

Hi Anton,

Forgive me for the potentially dumb question -- but how do I do that myself?

The monorepo doesn't contain the website source(s) and it's unclear how I
can do that myself... I'd love to do it myself but I'm a little lost on how
to do it.

Help?
