Each member of your group should attempt to configure the development environemnt for this project. Complete the following for each member:
Name: Terrance Chen Operating system: MacOS Was the installation successful? (if not, explain what went wrong and what you did to try to remedy it) Yes How long did the whole process take? 30 mins
How friendly is this project for beginner contributors? It is not very friendly. There are not much easy contributions and many open pull requests. It seems that contributing is rather difficult.
Do the maintainers respond helpfully to questions in issues? I think that when they respond it is helpful when answering questions. It seems to help the people that open issues. However because it is so large it seems that they have difficultly responding sometimes
Are people friendly in the issues, discussion forum, and chat (for example, IRC or Slack)? Yes they seem friendly in providing their input.
Do pull requests get reviewed? A lot does, but a lot of it is automated. I do think all pull requests do get reviewed
Do maintainers thank people for their contributions? Yes they do
Are there special skills required to contribute to the project? If so, what are they? I think to contribute to the codebase it is very selective, and they have many automated tests to see if they will accept the contributions: unit tests. It also seems the contributors all have a solid grasp on ML models
Are there any special hardware/software requirements to be able to contribute to the project? If so, what are they? I don't think so, but certain testing might be a bit difficult
