Google Summer of Code

Google Summer of Code (GSoC) is an annual program that connects students with open-source organizations to work on software development projects over the summer. Participants, typically university students, receive mentorship from experienced developers and earn stipends for their contributions. The program aims to encourage the growth of open-source software while providing students with real-world coding experience, enhancing their skills and career prospects. Organizations gain fresh ideas and help to advance their projects. GSoC promotes collaboration between students and the open-source community, fostering innovation and knowledge sharing in software development.
