Hello Ayan,

Before we start, please read through the Google Summer of Code 2020 page on Fedora Docs, including all the references to the GSoC documentation from Google. This is important in order to make sure that you have a good understanding of the timeline and things that need to be done in that timeline.

Although you are probably already familiar with some of these, here are some links where you can start exploring Packit:
  • Packit.dev website. You’ll find user facing and some architecture documentation here. Read through these to understand how the service and application work from a user point of view.
  • Packit Service GitHub organization. We have quite a few repositories here. Browse through them to understand their purpose and how they relate to each other. You should spend most of your time on getting familiar with packit, packit-service, ogr, deployment and dashboard. Try to play with the code in these repositories, run the tests and maybe deploy the service on your machine.
In order to prove your skills, I encourage you to contribute a change to one of these repositories, before the end of the application review period (April 27, 2020). You can either fix an issue you find while getting familiar with Packit, or you could look at some of the issues labelled good-first-issue. Note, that it’s not just code you can contribute, the team also welcomes and values improvements to the documentation.

The goal for all the above is for you to learn enough about Packit so that you can come up with a meaningful project proposal as part of your application.

As the deadline to submit your application is approaching (31st of March) please make sure you submit your draft as soon as possible on https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/, so that we still have time to provide you some early feedback. It won't be possible to modify your application after the deadline.

As for staying in touch: email is the most reliable way, but you can also reach me on freenode in the #packit or #fedora-summer-coding channels. I’m usually online 8-17 UTC on weekdays, so I should be relatively quick in replying to pings during that period.

Thanks,
Hunor
