Hi folks,

Welcome! If you are new contributor, here are some links to resources to get you started:

Please also consider joining our contributors' community, where folks connect with each to resolve issues and discuss ongoing work.

If something isn't clear, or doesn't go smoothly, then you can ask in our contributors' community or raise an issue.

As we continue to evolve contributing to pandas, you can check back here for updates in the list below. Thank you for being a part of pandas!

Recent updates:

  • 2023.05.09: pandas is changing it's build system to meson. See the new build instructions. If you run into issues, also checkout TRACKER: Getting Started with Meson/Bug Reports #49683.
  • 2023.02.24: The pytest arguments --skip-slow, --skip-network, and --skip-db have been removed (TST/CLN: Remove --skip-* flags in favor of -m "not *" #51490). You can use -m "not slow and not network and not db" with pytest instead. See Running the test suite for a full example.
  • 2022.10.24: We decided to remove the milestone “contributors welcome” across the entire project. That means that if you see an activity like "@xyz removed this from the Contributions Welcome milestone X days ago" on issues tagged with good first issue, or any other label really, it's safe to ignore it. Please go ahead and contribute to any issue you are interested in.

@topper-123 this was pinned on purpose (also discussed on our slack, so please don’t remove the pin)

@datapythonista - We'd like to leave this pinned, any objection?

Ah, sorry, I think I probably confused this with a github popup or something. No familiar with pinned issues, I see on the history that I unpined it, but not that I planned to unpin anything for others.

Hi @noatamir Can you add some lines like what is meant by "Needs Triage" because some new contributors are looking for
issues but they don't know whether the issue is reviewed by any of the team members.
-Without knowing of this they made a pull request for a particular issue even without knowing it is verified or not.

@suresh33661 - thanks for the request! Can you open up a new issue with this request? This issue is really meant to just make it easier for new contributors to find information.

Locking the conversation.

Sorry, no objection at all. Did not realize I unpinned it.
