Health Breakdown
Should you contribute to NGSolve/ngsolve?
NGSolve/ngsolve has a FoundDev health score of 89/100, which puts it in the active-and-maintained tier. The maintainer team is shipping recently, issues are being closed, and a PR you open this week has a realistic chance of being reviewed.
Last push was 0 days ago — that signals an actively maintained project. New issues are likely to get a maintainer response within days. The project is written primarily in C++, so prior C++ experience will shorten ramp-up.
