hello, while trying to figure out the starting point, I came across this project form GSoC 2017 by C.P. O'Donell
https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/archive/2017/projects/4925375616385024/ Is this the project that has previous works on the project I'm wanting to take (#2920) ? If not , please help me find the right one. Also, please guide me with reading references and some small tickets related to the project . Thank you , Vijay k.
