Could anyone help me get started? This is my first time contributing to open source. I am proficient with C++11 and C++14(Not so much with 17 though). Also, I am not sure whether this is useful or not but I have a very keen interest in algorithms and problem solving techniques in general. Any help would be appreciated.

1. Go to http://www.boost.org/users/faq.html 2. Read "How can I contribute to development?" 3. Read resources linked from https://www.boost.org/development/index.html 4. Go to https://github.com/boostorg/<YOUR LIBRARY OF INTEREST> - read its README, if present - read its CONTRIBUTING file, if present - search its Wiki pages, if any present, for any guidelines If you have *specific* questions about contributing to Boost, or better, a particular Boost library, just ask.
