Harish Anand

I'm an undergraduate CS student at Model Engineering College India. I started using Linux in 2011 and Fedora was my first Linux distribution. Over the years, I tried many different flavors of Linux and wanted to feel the difference of each one of them. Now I spend my time more on tweaking fedora, scripting, contributing and on IRC channels. I am extremely passionate about free and open source software and would love to contribute a lot more.

Activities within Fedora

• As a hobby project, developed a Gnome extension that acts like a personal assistant (like Cortana) for Fedora. The system's NLP and AI was done using Api.ai API calls. The project involved creation of a D-BUS service for message passing and materialistic card design for displaying notification. This project gave me good understanding of D-BUS services and its functionalities.
