2 years ago Thanks @yihangx , like you all mentioned in the goals , opening the app store in Cytoscape browser , was a good idea , so we will be providing an option named , app Store , on clicking on that , a new Cytoscape browser window will be poped up ,and will show the web version of app Store . So now we should upgrade the web version of the app store as you mentioned . So did I get it correct ? Any suggestions like what I do now.

2 years ago IMPORTANT REMINDER: GSoC 2022 is for new “beginners” to open source.
Applicants are expected to review eligibility requirements prior to applying. We can not accept applications from contributors with prior open source development experience. From the GSoC FAQ https://developers.google.com/open-source/gsoc/faq:
Can someone already participating in open source be a GSoC Contributor?
The goal of GSoC is to bring new contributors into open source organizations. GSoC can also help beginner contributors learn the ins and outs of open source while being mentored by experienced community members. GSoC is for new and beginner contributors to open source, it is not for experienced contributors to open source.

commented
3 months ago @jai12789 : Please note that you can submit a draft proposal in the GSoC interface which you can then update based on feedback up until the deadline (April 2, 18:00 UTC). This is the best way to get feedback from multiple mentors. All proposals must be submitted via the GSoC interface; we cannot consider proposals sent to us by other means.

Background
The Cytoscape App Store is an interactive website for browsing, submitting and installing Cytoscape apps. Cytoscape is a free, open source data visualization tool for biomedical research, focused on molecular networks. There are over 370 apps in the App Store that bring specialized functionality to Cytoscape, including database access, data-driven visualization and novel analysis capabilities. The site sees over 1000 downloads per day from users of the Cytoscape research tool. A motivated student with an interest in advanced web development could make major enhancements to the site.
Goal
In addition to the necessary upgrades, we have a list of features to implement for the site, ranging from entry-level to advanced. Per your interests and skill, propose to us which of these features you think you could complete in the time you have. Additional features can be suggested as well.
Difficulty Level: Easy
Technically, this is an easy project. However, advanced user-centric design skills, UI/UX skills and deployment skills may be helpful.
