LFX Mentorship Showcase 2023

Ruchi was selected as an LFX Mentee at Open-Horizon for the Spring Cohort'22. Ruchi worked on the Open Horizon Services project and deployed an edge node of the services project which modified the installation process and published it on the docker hub making edge node installation 1.5x times quicker. Ruchi added missing makefile targets and implemented a few examples of the project in different programming languages like C++, Go & Python. Starting off from the day I applied to the LFX until getting selected as an LFX Mentee and working successfully for over 3 months and a half, it felt surreal. I have been contributing to open-source projects and organizations before. But being a part of LFX gave me such a huge learning curve and a sense of credibility and ownership that I got here wouldn’t have gotten anywhere else. The open-Horizon community is so welcoming and working with my mentors Joe Pearson and Troy Fine was the best part of all I would definitely gonna cherish that as it was my first-ever corporate experience. As my project revolved around Cloud-Native technology and DevOps, I learned Docker, DevOps, Linux, how edge-computing works, how to deploy on docker-hub, & GO.
