Future Works

To further enhance the OpenMRS Developer Experience, I am actively working on incorporating Java 17 support for OpenMRS. This improvement is particularly valuable for newcomers who are already utilizing Java 17, making their onboarding process smoother and more efficient.

Thoughts on GSoC

My journey during GSOC with OpenMRS has been incredibly enriching. This experience has allowed me to not only advance my technical abilities but has also been an opportunity for personal growth.

I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to my mentors, Daniel Kayiwa, Ian Bacher, and Joshua Nsereko. Their unwavering support and guidance were instrumental in my success.

I would also like to extend my appreciation to every member of the OpenMRS community for their outstanding contributions and dedication.

Thank you all for this incredible journey!
