GSoC 2026 contributor looking to start contributing

Hello everyone,

My name is Shubham Chaudhari and I am a B.Tech Computer Science and Engineering student.

I am interested in contributing to Python projects for Google Summer of Code 2026. I have experience with Python, Java, and networking, and I am currently exploring the CPython repository and beginner issues.

I would appreciate guidance on how I can start contributing and which beginner issues would be suitable to begin with.

Thank you!

Welcome @Shubhamcch !

We recommend that everyone gets started by reading:

Feel free to ask questions here if there’s anything in those references that you don’t understand or if you get stuck.

Thank you for the welcome and the resources.

I will go through the “Looking to get involved” guide and the contribution documentation.

I’m particularly interested in starting with beginner-friendly tickets in Django to understand the workflow.

If there are any recommended tickets or areas suitable for new contributors, I would appreciate the guidance.

Thanks again!
