[Openchemistry-developers] Regarding GSoc 2019

[Geoffrey Hutchison]

Dear Vishesh,

Thanks for your message - at the moment, we don't know if we'll be selected again for GSoC 2019. We also haven't started a 2019 "ideas" list. That said, we'd be happy to have you contribute.

One thing to understand is that Open Chemistry is an "umbrella" organization with multiple sub-projects. You should probably take a look at last year's idea list to think about the projects (e.g., there's a range of programming languages from JavaScript and Java to Python and C++).

http://wiki.openchemistry.org/GSoC_Ideas_2018

A number of the ideas on the page were accomplished in 2018, but they should give you a rough concept of needs of particular projects. I'd suggest you pick one project and then ask for more details about needs, find the project GitHub, look for issues/bugs to fix, etc. as a place to start.

Welcome!
-Geoff

> I ‘m aspiring for getting started with open source and gsoc.I ‘m currently looking for an open source project to work upon and would like to join Open-Chemistry-Developers being a chemistry student(Enrolled in Msc Chemistry at Bits Pilani,Rajasthan,India) and having knowledge of python. I can’t say if I know other things like Django, ML, flask and app  dev via kivy  but time to time I ‘ve gone through basic tutorials on Django and ML. I have enough if not sufficient knowledge of numpy, sympy, scipy, matplotlib and other scientific libraries. I ‘ve done around 120 questions on Project Euler including 2-3 with 60% difficulty(if it counts )  in python. I have my GitHub account but having contributed anything or say it anything worthy.  For other skills required for the project is what I can get command over soon as per requirements.
