Introduction – Kovidhraj from IIIT Nagpur (Exploring Jenkins for GSoC 2026)

Hello everyone!
I’m Kovidhraj, a third-year B.Tech student from IIIT Nagpur.

My current tech stack includes TypeScript, Python, C, and C++. While I haven’t built anything Jenkins-related before, I’ve been actively exploring CI/CD concepts and I’m really eager to understand Jenkins’ architecture, plugin system, and overall ecosystem.

I’m here to learn, contribute, and grow with the community. My goal is to get comfortable with the Jenkins codebase, identify areas where I can help, and work consistently toward contributing for GSoC 2026.

Looking forward to guidance, discussions, and collaborating with all of you.
Excited to start this journey and be part of the Jenkins community!
