Thank you for your interest!<br>
I recommend starting with compiling syslog-ng from source. [1]</div>

After that, you could either work on a small feature request or on a bug report.</div>

Hello,<br>
I’m Kavinda Rajapakse, an undergraduate at the University of Moratuwa, Sri Lanka. Currently, I'm studying Computer Science and Engineering. This is my first time contributing to open source. I have some experience working in Rsyslog and Elastic stack. I would
like to contribute to the "Support Elastic's beats protocol” project in GSOC 2022. I would be highly obliged if someone could provide me with an introduction as to how to get started.<br>
Thank you.<br>
