@Mridu_Bhatnagar Your gerrit patch looks good. I think we can call this microtask done. Your next step is to write up a project proposal based on the list of issues that are outlined in the parent task. Try to think roughly about how difficult each one seems to be to you and how important fixing the issue is likely to be. Describe in your proposal which issues you think you can address and how they will fit together to make using the script as a Toolforge developer a better experience.

@Mridu_Bhatnagar Just making sure.. that you've checked whether or not you meet the eligibility criteria listed here https://www.outreachy.org/apply/eligibility/

When you start working on the application on the Outreachy program website, fill out the eligibility information first, even if you don't know yet what content should go in other parts of the application. That will allow Outreachy organizers to verify (see point 3 under "How to Apply" section https://www.outreachy.org/apply/).

Lastly, make sure you have read point number 9 under "Application Process Steps" here https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Outreachy/Participants

If you have any questions about the application process, please ask!

Thank you @bd808 :). Yes would start off with it.

Thanks for the token and help @srishakatux. Would need all of yours help for the application process. Doing something of this sought for the very first time.
