Research direction
This roadmap issue tracks multiple tasks for the next release. As a first time contributor, review the unchecked items under 'New features & refactors' and 'Bugs to be fixed'. For example, the bug 'Even though Yarn is detected, it creates a npm lockfile (#747)' is a well defined issue. Alternatively, the refactoring tasks for Jasmine and Mocha sub generators lack linked issues, so you would need to explore the codebase to understand the current implementation. Check if these tasks have been recently discussed in comments or if there are any open PRs. Focus on one of the open tasks that is not assigned and has clear requirements.
