Hi guys, my name is Harry and I want to apply to Fedora Games SIG, reasons listed below
1. I mainly use fedora to develop C++ & Go applications, but when I want to relax, I have to reboot to Windows in order to play my steam game, which is very annoying 2. I hope we can make fedora not only a GREAT development OS, but also a good entertainment platform 3. I hope we can adopt some windows game to Fedora by using technologies such as Wine 4. I recently noticed Stream's Proton, I hope we can make it more "high availability" on fedora
Area of knowledge
1. About Nvidia driver, Nvidia prime, etc 2. Wine
I understant that my knowledge may not be qualified to join this group, since I am still a high-school student, but I am ready to learn a lot of thing and try my best to contribute
Sincerely,
Harry

Hi Harry, welcome! Happy to have you here.
You may have seen the Games SIG wiki page. This is a good place to start and learn more about the Games SIG and some of the work done here:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/SIGs/Games
Most of the work that happens here is creating RPM packages, either open source games or open source tools and libraries for game developers.
In 2016, some folks brainstormed on ideas to revive the Games SIG. Not much has been done on these things to date, but for historical reference, you can find those notes here:
https://etherpad.gnome.org/p/fedora-games-sig-brainstorm
Someone else on this list might have some beginner-friendly tasks for packaging, if that is interesting to you. Currently I am not actively involved in the Games SIG, but I'm happy to help point you in the right direction as I can.
