Hi. I’m a 2nd year BTech student interested in contributing to Django for Google Summer of Code 2026.

I’m currently learning Django and exploring the project. I’m particularly interested in this Admin UI modernization idea.

Could you please guide me on how to get started and suggest beginner-friendly issues.
