Long-time TYPO3 community members will remember their first experiences with TYPO3 and the community behind it. They might recall frustrating moments while trying to write their first line of TypoScript, or also the moment they finally held the solution in their digital hands.
Since I'm just at the beginning of this story, I'd like to share some of my first experiences around the TYPO3 world with you.
Perhaps first some information about me: My name is Felix Ranesberger, I’m almost 17 years old. I've been interested in design for quite some time, and now I'm freshly immersed in TYPO3, HTML, and CSS.
Especially as a beginner, you will encounter some challenges. That's why having a group of helpful people sitting next to you at the beginning makes a big difference. Working together in this sprint was a lot of fun for me because I met interesting people with similar interests to me.
In this sprint, I set up and configured my project with Docker and ddev. Here I ran into some problems, which I solved with a little help from others. I created a design to simplify the UI for the version-switcher at docs.typo3.org.
I have integrated a new component with a flexible background-color that can be adapted to the brand colors of the TYPO3 Association.
Finally, I used Sketch to design some new features we’re currently working on.
The beginning is always tough, but I liked my first TYPO3 sprint and I am pretty sure I’ll participate again.
Let’s have a look, at what the whole team achieved in this sprint:
79 issues and 57 merge requests were done.

As a last note, I’d like to mention, that we shared our sprint with the Documentation Team. We were able to help each other and worked on several tasks together. Keep an eye out for a report from the Documentation Team about their sprint.
Join our team at the #t3o-development channel in TYPO3 Slack and get in touch at our next sprint.
Next steps: Our next sprint will be from the 19-22 May in Stuttgart. Feel free, to join us.
