GSOC 2021: Contributing STUDENTS guide and Q&A #2

Open ericneiva opened 3 years ago

ericneiva commented 3 years ago

Dear student,

If you are planning to write a GSOC 2021 proposal for Gridap, here is a list of references to help you strengthen your proposal:

  1. Must-read :warning: NumFOCUS contributing students guide: Since Gridap participates as a sub-organisation of NumFOCUS, your proposals should follow these instructions.
  2. Some examples of NumFOCUS proposals awarded in 2017 are available here.
  3. The GSOC instructions from The Julia Language do not apply to us, but can give you some inspiration.
  4. Advice from the Stochastic lifestyle blog.

Please, do not hesitate to comment on this issue, if you have any questions regarding the general application process under NumFOCUS. We also encourage you to open a dedicated issue to discuss and guide specifically your application with your mentors and the broader Gridap community. You can title the issue as GSOC 2021: [Preliminary proposal name].

Finally, you might find other interesting advice and examples, by searching through several GSOC organizations. Please, do share them with us! :smiley:
