Honorable Mentions

Every year, we receive a large number of extremely high quality Google Summer of Code applications. Due to organizational and operational constraints, we are unable to select all candidates. AnkiDroid's mentors felt the following applications were of exceptional quality in their written proposals, and/or the code submissions made to AnkiDroid during the application period.

Congratulations to all those selected! Thank you for your contributions, discussions and enthusiasm. AnkiDroid is better due to your contributions, and you're ALWAYS welcome to continue contributing to open source, whether it be with AnkiDroid, or with another project close to your heart. Best of luck - wherever your journey takes you in the future.

GSoC 2024 proposal template

Please fill this proposal template and contact us for feedback, Your proposal should be shared as "anyone with the link can leave comments", Mentors have been instructed not to respond to proposals that are not shared publicly, and we take a negative view on restricting access to proposals after feedback is provided. This is because, in the spirit of open-source, we would like to keep the discussions open, so it is intentional that everyone (including non-mentors) should be able to see your proposal and leave comments and suggestions on it.

Your proposal must be original (see section 2.4 of the Contributor Participation Agreement). During the selection process, proposals that are found to have plagiarized others' work will automatically be disqualified. If you include any text in your proposal that is copied from the Internet or other sources, you should make it clear that you are doing so and provide a link or reference back to the source.
