Hi, ansuman!
I understand that developers in your area don't yet have a critical mass of experienced Wikimedia technology experts. So I suggest that your community should hold some in-person trainings using the documentation that already exists:
- https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/How_to_become_a_MediaWiki_hacker
- https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Category:Tutorials
- http://openhatch.org/missions/
- https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Pywikipediabot
- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:A_quick_guide_to_templates
and communicating with the larger Wikimedia technical community instantaneously on IRC:
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki_on_IRC
If you have any trouble finding the materials you need to learn a topic you want to learn, please tell me! It's my job to find or make those materials for you. :-)
