If this is your first time contributing to a project...

Configuring Development Environment: Time spent into setting up good development environments now will pay off 10x in the long run - PyCharm Pro is life changing if you can get a student license. Download it here: https://www.jetbrains.com/pycharm/download/ or via sudo snap install pycharm-professional --classic on Ubuntu.

The pro version is particularly useful for projects where you develop locally and deploy remotely (like when using GPUs on AWS or Google Cloud). With the Pro version, you can configure a remote interpreter and deployment configuration such that any changes you make on your local filesystem will be automatically synced with the deployment server over SSH.

This also means that you can generate figures on the remote server, save them to the file system, and view them inside the IDE with the remote filesystem viewer or download them locally.

This also permits using PyCharm's built in debugger to step through the code line by line which is very nice as well as a great GUI for git.
