nishantwrp / gsoc-organizations Goto Github PK

Each organisation has a couple of resources for new contributors to get started. Or maybe specific resources for contributors interested in doing a Google Summer of Code project with that organisation. These links are often not present in the official Google Summer of Code website and hence can't be scraped from there. It would be great if we have a section beside each organization showing these important links for that organization.

I've created imp_links.json that will act as a data source for these links. Please feel free to submit pull requests for any links that you feel are important and are not present in this file.

PRs for reference: #79, #80

Feature Request:
I would like to propose the addition of a GitHub link to the organization information (ex. https://www.gsocorganizations.dev/organization/submitty/). This would enhance the user experience by providing direct access to the organization's GitHub repository.

GET https://api.gsocorganizations.dev/2022.json returns 197 organizations, while there are 198 organizations on the GSoC website, and it seems that this missing organization is the Eclipse Foundation.

The GSoC organization page (https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/archive/2019/organizations/5526850200141824/) displays this. It will be useful to include this.

The participating organizations for 2022 were announced on March 7th. Please add them too :)

2024 list of organizations is released by the GSOC team
It should be added to the site ASAP and the site should be customized accordingly

• Improve the sidebar filter UI
• Improve UI of organization page, graphs
• Display all selected filters in sidebar

After aggregating all the organization data, there should be checks in compile-data.js that check for some anomalies that violate the assumptions in the frontend.

• No two organizations should have the same name
• No organizations should have a year twice. For example: it participated in 2022 twice. It means that there is something wrong with the aggregation algorithm.

As you can see in the above ScreenShot There is no "Visit Repo" sort of button available. so it will be great to have it.
Reason: It's seems minor thing to have but trust me it solves major drawback of not having any repo link.
I mean currently we have to search a particular ORG in GitHub search system. so it would be great if we can directly navigate through your website.
Hope it makes sense to you and thanks 😊.

In AboutCode organization 7 projects got implemented but these two links show different results. I know this is a bug from google side but we can do something from our end to check for the maximum of both the links? I am sure the number will never be more than the real one.

When organizing organizations by years, placing the selected year at the top of the list can create some disorder in the sequence of years. It might be more preferable to mark the selected year without altering its position in the list, which would enhance readability.

Update Gsoc website with orgs of 2022. Also, it would be better to have an option to filter new orgs specifically in the filter section

Improve the LCP (Largest Contentful Paint) of the site

Another category in the First-time-organisations (Shortcuts) list would be:

GOOD FOR FIRST-TIMERS
(or this can be a separate page highlighting easy-to-start projects from various organisations)

E.g. Julia participates in JSoC. Ruby has its own Ruby foundation grant. Linux participates in Outreachy etc.
It will be really helpful to include this information on the organization page.

The absence of a GitHub link for the projects becomes evident upon clicking, and it would be advantageous to include the GitHub link for enhanced accessibility and collaboration.

For eg. https://www.gsocorganizations.dev/organization/joplin/
We can add the link of github id or jopin repo. https://github.com/laurent22/joplin

The contribution guide for AsyncAPI is of 2023, while updated url is below

orignal:-
https://hospitable-principle-63f.notion.site/AsyncAPI-Google-Summer-of-Code-Contributor-Guidance-f4206a6df0bd4298a86433aadc2f3554

expected:-
https://github.com/asyncapi/community/blob/master/mentorship/summerofcode/README.md

It would be better if there would be a contact us section in the navbar itself and the user can find it easily for more seamless experience and I can try to fix it if u feel it is worth doing

Geomscale is merged with eclipse

Improve the UI of the website. Improve the padding of the tags. Very congested right now. Please assign the issue. Other UI improvements can also be done.
Could you assign this issue to me so I can make the required changes?

All the years are not visible in the past projects tab.

I want to work on this additional feature where the user can download the filtered data in the form of an Excel file (and maybe a PDF file too).

This will make sorting companies with higher chance of success easier to find

The current placement of ads on the website is interfering with the content display of the website.
The search bar is not placed in an appropriate position
The content is visible even above and below the search bar while scrolling.

POSSIBLE SOLUTION:
Pushing a search bar a bit up along the x-axis would solve the problem.
or keeping a white strip that hides the extra bar above the search bar would also help.

I came to this website to discover orgs I could start contributing to. The filters are great but there's one problem. I had to keep a notes app open to shortlist the orgs I'm interested in. I suggest adding a bookmark feature where one can shortlist the orgs they're interested in and later visit the bookmark page.

User Should be able to sort through various organisations.

Some sorting criterias I wanted while using the platform was:

1. According to sheer number of projects completed over the years.
2. Consistent presence in GSoC over the years (low to high and vice-versa).
3. Whether or not projects are decreasing/increasing every year.
4. Overall difficulty level.
   ...Also the the basics like Ascending, Descending, Popularity, etc.

Recently, a new filter called "first-time organizations` was introduced. Example - https://www.gsocorganizations.dev/?filters=%7B%22years%22%3A%5B%5D%2C%22categories%22%3A%5B%5D%2C%22technologies%22%3A%5B%5D%2C%22topics%22%3A%5B%5D%2C%22shortcuts%22%3A%5B%22First-time+organizations%22%5D%7D

This change was not backwards compatible and caused old urls with filters applied to break. Example - https://www.gsocorganizations.dev/?filters=%7B%22years%22%3A%5B%222022%22%5D%2C%22categories%22%3A%5B%5D%2C%22technologies%22%3A%5B%5D%2C%22topics%22%3A%5B%5D%7D

This needs to be fixed.

GSOC 2023 Organizations have been announced here https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/programs/2023/organizations
Can we please update the website to filter out new orgs?

A little discussion is needed for the correct metric that should be used to calculate this.
