So why did you pick Subsurface? Are you a diver? Do you have experience with Qt? Something else?
Just curious…

If you have never used Subsurface, start with the tutorial video. http://subsurface-divelog.org/tutorial-video/ <http://subsurface-divelog.org/tutorial-video/>
Then look at building Subsurface (http://subsurface-divelog.org/documentation/building/ <http://subsurface-divelog.org/documentation/building/> is a little outdated, we are literally days away from a new release and I’m in the process of updating this). And then you can start writing code: http://subsurface-divelog.org/documentation/contributing/ <http://subsurface-divelog.org/documentation/contributing/> is a good place to start.
So this is a very high level overview. I’m sure you have many more questions, but let’s see how far you get with this and then we can talk more :-)
