What actions will you take to familiarize yourself with the current state and structure of the project you are about to join?

To quickly immerse yourself in the project, the following steps should be taken:

• Study the project documentation: architecture, technologies used, coding standards.
• Familiarize yourself with the code repositories, look at the folder structure and main modules.
• Run the project locally and check how it works.
• Review current tasks and bugs in the tracking system (e.g., Jira, Trello).
• Talk to colleagues — developers, testers, managers — to understand the business logic and current issues.
• Study the CI/CD processes and tests to understand how the build and deployment happen.

This approach will help quickly understand the state and structure of the project for effective work.
