Python
</h3>
<p>
Python is a popular high-level programming language. It is a general-purpose language used by
scientists, developers, and many others who want to work more quickly and integrate systems
more effectively.

Google Summer of Code
</h3>
<p>
Google Summer of Code (GSoC) is a global program that offers post-secondary students an
opportunity to be paid for contributing to an open source project over a three month period.
</p>
</div>
<div class="pure-u-1 pure-u-md-1-1 pure-u-lg-1-1">
<p>
The Python Software Foundation (PSF) is an organization devoted to advancing open source
technology related to the Python programming language.
Since 2005, the Python Software Foundation has participated in Google Summer of Code, serving
as an "umbrella organization" to a variety of Python-related projects, as well as sponsoring
projects related to the development of the Python language. Python provides mentors, Google
provides the program (and the money!), and students write code!

Choose an organization.
</h3>
<p>
There's hundreds of thousands of projects that use Python, and you
need to narrow
down the list before you can get help or do much that's useful. See <a href="faq.html#choosing">How
do I choose a project or sub-org?</a> for ideas
on how to do that.
<p><em>Any</em> open source experience will help you prepare for GSoC,
so don't worry too much about what project you try first and don't be afraid
to change your mind! When we know which sub-orgs will be participating,
they'll be listed <a href="ideas.html">with the project ideas</a>.
</p>
</div>
<div class="l-box pure-u-1 pure-u-md-1-2 pure-u-lg-1-3">
<h3 class="content-subhead">
<i class="fa fa-laptop"></i>
Set up your own development environment.
</h3>
<p>
Document what you do so you can remember it later, and so you can
help others if they get stuck! And if you get stuck, don't be afraid to ask
for help.
</p>
</div>
<div class="l-box pure-u-1 pure-u-md-1-2 pure-u-lg-1-3">
<h3 class="content-subhead">
<i class="fa fa-comments"></i>
Start communicating with the developers.
</h3>
<p>
Join the mailing list, IRC channel, or any other communication
channels the developers use. Listen, get to know the people involved, and ask
questions.
<ul>
<li>Read first to see if your question has already been answered.
We get a lot of repeat questions!
</li>
<li>Communicate in public (not in private). Most open source work is done in the open, so
demonstrate that you can do that!</li>

Try to fix a bug.
</h3>
<p>
Many projects have these tagged as "easy" "bite-size" or
"beginner-friendly" -- do a search to see what comes up. Competition for the easiest
ones can be fierce, so don't be afraid to try something harder if you think
you might know what to do.
</p>
<p>
Can't find a bug? Other ideas: find typos and fix them. Improve test coverage by
writing new tests. Improve documentation. Use a tool like Pylint or Bandit to see
if you can find new issues.

<h3 class="content-subhead">

Find bugs and report them.
</h3>
<p>
Hopefully you won't encounter too many, but it's always a good idea to get familiar with your
project's bug reporting process.

Help with documentation.
</h3>
<p>
As a beginner in your project, you're going to see things that are confusing that more
experienced developers may not notice. Take advantage of your beginner mindset and make sure to
document anything you think is missing!

<div class="l-box pure-u-1 pure-u-md-1-2 pure-u-lg-1-3">
<h3 class="content-subhead">
<i class="fa fa-heart"></i>
Help others.
</h3>
<p>
Most projects are looking for not just coders, but good community members who people like to
work with. Show your community skills by helping others and make a great impression come
selection time!

<h3>How do I apply?</h3>
Short application checklist:
<ol>
<li>Read the links and instructions given on this site -- All of it! we've tried to give you all
the information you need to be an awesome student applicant.
<li>Choose a sub-org (<a href="#ideas">check the list here</a>). Applications not
associated with a sub-org typically get rejected.
<li>Talk to your prospective mentors about what they expect of student
applicants and get help from them to refine your project ideas. Listening to
your mentors' recommendations is very important at this stage!</li>
<li>Prepare a patch for that sub-org. Usually we expect students to fix a bug and have made a pull
request (or equivalent). Your code doesn't have to be
accepted and merged, but it does have to be visible to the public.</li>
<li><a href="studenttemplate.html">Write your application</a> (with help from your mentors!). <a
href="https://github.com/python-gsoc/python-gsoc.github.io/blob/master/2018/application2018.md">A
shorter
markdown version of the application template is available here.</a>
<ul>
<li>Use a descriptive title and include your sub-org name. Good example: "Mailman:
Improve
archive search" Bad example: "My gsoc project"
<li>Make it easy for your mentors to give you feedback. If you're using Google docs,
enable comments and submit a "draft" (we can't see the "final" versions until applications close).
If you're using a format that doesn't accept comments, make sure your email is on the document and don't forget to check for
feedback!
</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li> Submit your application to Google before the deadline. We actually
recommend you submit a few days early in case you have internet problems or
the system is down. Google does not extend this deadline, so it's best to be
prepared early! You can edit your application up until the system
closes.</li>
</ol>

Tip
</h3>
<p><strong>Communication</strong> is probably the most
important part of the application process. Talk to the mentors and other
developers, <em>listen</em> when they give you advice,
and demonstrate that you've understood by incorporating their feedback into
what you're proposing. We reject a lot of students who haven't listened to mentor
feedback. If your mentors tell you that a project idea won't work for them, you're
probably not going to get accepted unless you change it.</p>

Tips!
</h3>
<ol>
<li><strong>Read first.</strong> We've tried to answer the common questions on this site, and
we get asked things like "<a href="#getstarted">how do I get started?</a>" and "<a href="faq.html#easybugs">where
do I find easy bugs?</a>" a lot. Check the <a href="faq.html">Frequently Asked
Questions (FAQ)</a> for more!</li>
<li><strong>Be Patient!</strong> Our mentors typically have day jobs and can't always answer
right-away. If you can't hang out on IRC for an answer, send an email instead.</li>
<li><strong>Ask questions directly on IRC.</strong> You don't need to introduce
yourself or say hi first, just ask away!</li>
<li><strong>Communicate in public.</strong> That lets many mentors read your question so you
can usually get an answer faster.</li>
</ol>
<p><strong>For mentors</strong>: All the gsoc admins can be reached at
gsoc-admins(at)python(dot)org if you have questions about participating.
(Students should email gsoc-general(at)python.org with all of their
questions, unless they are of a sensitive personal nature.)
