About me
My name is Arina Kolodeznikova, I am a Computer Programming & Analysis student at Seneca. I love math and problem-solving and am currently in search of my niche in the Tech world.
Why am I doing this?
I am starting this series of blog posts to document and share my learnings and takeaways from the Open Source Development (OSD600) course.
Blogging is new to me, I am reserved by nature, which hand in hand with being slightly perfectionist, often keeps me away from fully engaging with the community/trying to work on bigger things. Nonetheless, this is one of the very reasons why I decided to take this course. I hope it will help me come out of my shell and become a more confident developer. Furthermore, I am intrigued by the idea of people combining their efforts for the greater good and the freedom that comes with it.
In short: I am taking this course because I see it as a perfect mix of frightening and rewarding.
My choice of the trending repo
The trending repo I chose is Backend cheats, a nifty backend reference guide.

backend-cheats
📃 White paper for Backend developers
This repository is a visual cheatsheet on the main topics in Backend-development. All material is divided into chapters that include different topics. There are three main parts to each topic:
- Visual part – various images/tables/cheatsheets for better understanding (may not be available). All pictures and tables are made from scratch, specifically for this repository.
- Summary – A very brief summary with a list of key terms and concepts. The terms are hyperlinked to the appropriate section on Wikipedia or a similar reference resource.
- References to sources – resources where you may find complete information on a particular issue (they are hidden under a spoiler, which opens when clicked). If possible, the most authoritative sources are indicated, or those that provide information in as simple and comprehensible language as possible.

It caught my eye while I was looking at trending repos in Russian. Although it is not a coding project, I thought this repo might be nice to fork for brushing up on some fundamentals (especially for fellow Russian speakers, as the Repo has both English and Russian). + as the owner of the repo said:
