Sowmya – GSoC 2026 Aspirant Introduction

Hello everyone :waving_hand:

My name is Sowmya , a 3rd Year Computer Science student passionate about backend development and open-source. I have experience working with Django, Python, and building web applications, and I’m particularly interested in understanding how large-scale frameworks like Django are designed and maintained.

As a GSoC aspirant, I’m excited to start contributing to Django and deepen my understanding of its architecture. I’m currently exploring the repository and documentation, and I would greatly appreciate any guidance on beginner-friendly issues or areas where I can contribute effectively.

Looking forward to learning from the community and contributing back.

Thank you!
