Hello folks!
I'm in a path to fully replace my stuff onto free software. I am very astonished to see how enormous linux has become on the past years, just by community collaboration. And by the same way, my heart just got broken to read that this community had such few members, that I decided I have to do my best in order to expand its boundaries.
I'm a electronics engineering student, Python enthusiast and a great fan of open source.
Where do I start? What are barriers that impede UT from spreading? What should I learn in software to help the community?

Depends your area of interest and confort : community, system, porting, coding, Art etc... and you don't even need to be good or educated in that field, like me
just learning by tweaking.Python wise they are several possibilities :
- full applications : https://github.com/ernesst/ActivityTracker
- Wrapper : https://framagit.org/ernesst/MLS-for-Utouch / https://framagit.org/ernesst/gps-utouch-tracker
Python get integrated into QML via : https://github.com/thp/pyotherside
A very nice python lib would be great to integrate into Utouch : https://github.com/owncloud/pyocclient for Nextcloud/Owncloud.
Welcome in the community.
