Hi Django Community,
My name is Noorie Garg, and I am a final-year Computer Science student at College of Engineering, Roorkee. I am passionate about web development, and I’ve been working with Django, Python, and React.js for some time now.
I am extremely interested in contributing to the Django project as part of Google Summer of Code (GSoC) 2025. Having followed Django’s development for a while, I am excited to be a part of the community and help improve the framework.
What I Have Done So Far:
- Developed a web-based eCommerce website using Django (in progress).
- Worked with React.js and Node.js on a real-time chat application.
- Familiar with Python, Django ORM, and RESTful APIs.
I am reaching out to request mentorship for GSoC 2025 and guidance on how I can effectively contribute to Django. I’d like to start by working on beginner-friendly issues and eventually take on larger tasks as I gain more experience.
Goals:
- Begin contributing to Django through smaller tasks to build up experience.
- Learn the internal workings of Django and contribute to its growth.
- Collaborate with the community and help improve Django documentation if possible.
I would be grateful if anyone could point me in the right direction or recommend any resources to help me get started. I am eager to be a productive member of the Django community and look forward to learning from all of you!
Thanks so much for your time and consideration!
Best regards,
Noorie Garg
