2 years ago Hi @scootermorris , @AlexanderPico, I find this problem quite exciting and the overall project (Cytoscape) also resonates with my interests. Along with that, I am proficient in using JAVA language and have even done some college-level projects using JAVA (FXML). Therefore, I would like to contribute to this issue to become a GSOC 22 contributor. I request you to guide me so that I can proceed beforehand. Looking forward to your reply Thank you

Proposals to NRNB must be submitted on the official GSoC Site (https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/) before April 19, 18:00 UTC to be considered, and contributors are encouraged to submit proposals in draft format early, so that mentors can give feedback directly at the GSoC site.

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.

Background
Cytoscape 3.7 implemented the concept of Palettes and Palette Providers into the core API. A Palette simply provides an ordered list of colors and provides some information about the suggested usage (divergent gradients, sequential gradients, or qualitative [categorical] colors). Cytoscape includes three different palette providers: Viridis, Brewer, and for backwards compatibility, the original color generators (see how to use palettes in Cytoscape). There is currently no way for a user to create or import a palette of their own into Cytoscape.
Goal
Implement a Cytoscape app that will allow users to create palettes. The user should be able to save and restore palettes, and the palettes should be preserved as part of the sessions. A stretch goal is to use public color sites such as ColorLovers to provide palettes for the user to start with.
Difficulty Level: Medium
Size and Length of Project
175 hours -- this should be relatively straightforward for a programmer familiar with Java
Skills
