Hi everyone! I'm Chiao Yu, happy to be part of the Flyte community. I'm a Quantitative Machine Learning Researcher, and I’ve been looking for a tool that handles ML workflow robustness and reproducibility as seriously as Flyte does. The strong typing system is what really brought me here. I’m looking to transition from a user to a contributor, so I'm currently hunting for some good first issues to get started. Given my background, I’m particularly interested in anything related to data validation, type transformers, or ML integrations in flytekit. If anyone has suggestions on where to dive in first, or if there's a specific area that needs a researcher's perspective, please let me know.

Welcome, excited to have you here! You might want to check out #C04NJPLRWUX channel. We're currently building Flyte 2.0, which should have an OSS release in Q1.
