Hello Akshay, Welcome!

Like Jona said, we are glad to have you here.

Since next week is the deadline we don't want you to miss out on core application details.

1. Please createa Fedora Account System (FAS) Id, subscribe and send intoduction email to commops ML and also create a Fedora wiki user page. For example, here is mine: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Bee2502

2. Follow the application process i.e create a subpage for your GSoC proposal and populate it with details. More info on that is here: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/mentored-projects/gsoc/2018/application.html

Don't worry if you dont know everything i.e. the timeline. We can help you with that but fill as many details as you can.

We would also love to see some initial contribution during the application period to help us evaluate the application. Like Jona suggested, there are some easyfix issues in Pagure repo for happiness packets. Also, it would be great if you can write a short blog posts (100 words is ok) - it can be about anything relevant to project i.e. details about happinesspackets.io code, the problems you faced during these easyfix tasks and how you debugged them. These posts help us immensely during gsoc selection to evaluate the work you have done. Ideally, it would be a blog post (100 words is okay) on how you can integrate FAS authentication with this website, what would you need etc. This is one of the easyfix tasks too.

Also, it would be great if you can send some samples of the previous websites you have developed. If you don't have any, it's not a problem :)

Feel free to ask us questions or ping us if you get stuck since the deadline is extremely close. We usually hang out in #fedora-commops. It would be great if you can review your proposal with us before you submit it.

Cheers,

Bee

Hello,

I am very much interested in the project of Fedora Packets: Fedora Happiness Packets. I am currently new to open source but I have full intentions to become a full time developer to make open source better, faster and more valuable.

Welcome to Fedora. Thanks for introducing yourself. We're happy to have you here!

My experience lies in Python, HTML/CSS and JS. I am currently working on an internship where i am usinf Django for developing an admin dashboard and hence i am certain that by the time this project work begins I will be ready with the required skills to make my contributions worth your time and patience you put in helping and guiding me.

Please have a look here https://pagure.io/fedora-commops/fedora-happiness-packets, you have some easyfix issues that you can start with.

My name is Akshay Karhade and I am looking for help with building a strong Proposal. I have another 7 days for deadline hence only 3 to make the first draft.

Please help.

I hope this is helpful. Let us know if you have any other questions.

Regards,

Akshay Karhade

Thanks,
Jona
