Google Summer of Code 2022 Ideas

Please see our main Google Summer of Code page for participation information.

This year, projects should take ~175 hours or ~350 hours for GSoC contributors to complete.

Each project on the Ideas list should include:

• a project title/description
• more detailed description of the project (2-5 sentences)
• expected outcomes
• skills required/preferred
• possible mentors
• expected size of project (175 or 350 hour).
• And if possible, an easy, medium or hard rating of each project.

Project ideas

Project team member and potential mentors, add your content here. The format suggested below is just an idea. Play with the layout, but please don't mess with content provided by other projects. Please be sure to follow branding guidelines (e.g. "Eclipse Dash", not "Dash"). Putting things in alphabetical order seems like a fair thing to do. Links to content hosted elsewhere are fine, but bear in mind that this page will likely be the main point of contact for people who are not already inside your community.
