[Openchemistry-developers] GSoC'19 Introduction and Interest

[Berquist, Eric John]

Hello Rounak,

Here is an invitation link to the Open Chemistry Slack: http://bit.ly/ocGSOC19

Most of what you need to know is outlined on our how-to page (http://wiki.openchemistry.org/Applying_to_GSoC). You can also take a look at our current issues (https://github.com/cclib/cclib/issues) and pull requests to see what we've been working on. Ideally, we'd like to see if you can contribute something to the project before the proposal, even if it's small.

Eric

Hello,

I am Rounak Agarwal, a third year CSE undergraduate at IIIT Jabalpur, India. I am looking to contribute to cclib under Open Chemistry as part of GSoC'19. I went through the ideas listed at http://wiki.openchemistry.org/GSoC_Ideas_2019#cclib_Project_Ideas<https://nam05.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwiki.openchemistry.org%2FGSoC_Ideas_2019%23cclib_Project_Ideas&data=02%7C01%7Cerb74%40pitt.edu%7C2859938bfb214b84d04c08d6a396ca5d%7C9ef9f489e0a04eeb87cc3a526112fd0d%7C1%7C0%7C636876265385727292&sdata=H%2Fl0DsISMGfnQleUUdWGJp8dtykZ9EtrvaqDMisASow%3D&reserved=0>

I am interested in the idea Support for QCSchema JSON output

I am familiar with Git and Github having contributed to Open Source projects before. My Github profile: https://github.com/agarwalrounak<https://nam05.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Fagarwalrounak&data=02%7C01%7Cerb74%40pitt.edu%7C2859938bfb214b84d04c08d6a396ca5d%7C9ef9f489e0a04eeb87cc3a526112fd0d%7C1%7C0%7C636876265385727292&sdata=HblSIGYJW9xmwlaCfCcJzmJEYA8lEUDkpOd8xHuvh0Q%3D&reserved=0>
You can read more about my previous Open Source contributions here: https://medium.com/@agarwalrounak<https://nam05.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fmedium.com%2F%40agarwalrounak&data=02%7C01%7Cerb74%40pitt.edu%7C2859938bfb214b84d04c08d6a396ca5d%7C9ef9f489e0a04eeb87cc3a526112fd0d%7C1%7C0%7C636876265385737297&sdata=lWwK2eT5BpCGs%2FQUYZMtm8IexVz0NuGxJwpjAfMPVKo%3D&reserved=0>
I also have a lot of experience with Python as most of the projects I have worked on involved Python. Furthermore, I have dealt with JSON before as I have created an application where I had to parse the JSON output returned by the API for useful information. The same project can be found here: https://github.com/agarwalrounak/Codigo_Maestro<https://nam05.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Fagarwalrounak%2FCodigo_Maestro&data=02%7C01%7Cerb74%40pitt.edu%7C2859938bfb214b84d04c08d6a396ca5d%7C9ef9f489e0a04eeb87cc3a526112fd0d%7C1%7C0%7C636876265385737297&sdata=kyWzrpFdwe7cLveM1S7LOG2J2dCkGgEGB6PcBR5Cxb4%3D&reserved=0>
Also, I have some experience with physics and chemistry since I had science as my major in class 12.
To discuss further on the idea, I request an invitation to the slack channel https://openchemistry.slack.com/<https://nam05.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fopenchemistry.slack.com%2F&data=02%7C01%7Cerb74%40pitt.edu%7C2859938bfb214b84d04c08d6a396ca5d%7C9ef9f489e0a04eeb87cc3a526112fd0d%7C1%7C0%7C636876265385747306&sdata=0khL8DEXG9znzhcfLG%2FxEoAS%2BwRNCJwfAbasLUZj41c%3D&reserved=0>
Also, I would like to know how I can move ahead with the idea so that I can prepare a proposal.

Looking forward to a lot of fruitful discussion on the idea.

Regards,

Rounak Agarwal
