Hey @Haleema_Khan,
can you create a topic with more details about the issues you’re facing here in the forum? It can be under the Outreachy category ^^
This will help us in learning how to best support you.

Hello again Outreachy applicants!
It was brought to my attention that I should update my introduction, so I’m redoing it.
I’ve added bold to the new information that is more important to retain.
Sorry for not doing that before!
I am Juliana.
Pronouns: She/Her (They/Them is also fine).
Timezone: Brazil/Bahia (UTC - 3).
I am also a member of OISF working on parts of Suricata, mostly, and its documentation.
In the past, I have worked on projects with C/C++, PHP, PostgreSQL, Drupal; but also as a Service Desk and Customer Support call center agent, and as a freelancer translator.
I’ll be one of your mentors and I am currently the community coordinator for OISF.
I’m also available for any questions related to the Redmine tickets, Suricata project, Git, Rust, C, struggles, confidence…
Contact me at jufajardini [at] oisf [dot] net in case of any CoC violations or anything you might not feel comfortable sharing in public.

I have worked mostly on Python projects especially in the web application and API space. I am interested in low level development; hence why I have picked up Rust (rust! 
)

I love reading books but I never get the time (maybe, I don’t love it that much?)
Hoping to contribute to Suricata. I am Baz#3679 on Discord.

Hey Baz!
Rust is difficult. But cool. And difficult in a cool way. You’ll be fine 
I also find it rather difficult to find time to read books, lately. I sometimes opt for audiobooks. Have you tried those?
Welcome to our community! I hope this will be a positive experience in your rust journey.

Thanks.

I have actually tried audiobooks; I just end up not focusing (well, because I’m always doing something else alongside). Thanks for the advice anyway

Hello again ^^
We’ve had some people contributing a lot already, so you’ll have to speed up your game, but the doors are open!
What’s most important is that you learn along the way and have a good time, so this experience will always be useful, no matter the outcome.
Welcome to our community, and do join our Discord server, especially the #Outreachy channel, for more synchronous chats.
