March 2019 - Fedora Summer Coding community

by Alessandra Pasini

Hi everybody! I'm Alessandra Pasini, I'm a 22 years old italian student at Politecnico di Milano (major computer science-AI). I'm really interested in what you do and, in particular I'm interested in your proposal called "CentOS CI user front end" and "Improving Fedora Android App". I've never partecipated at an open source project but I would like to start to be part of it. I have also a few questions: 1) for what concern the App improvement is it mandatory to do the iOS version? I don't have a Mac and so it would be a big problem to impelment it. 2) which type of features would you like to have? 3) could it be a good idea for example to have a mobile interface to look into the fedora repo like "Fedora packages"? 4) do you have any issues from which I could start? Best regards, Alessandra

Harsh Sahu [Self Introduction, GSOC 2019 aspirants]

by Harsh Sahu

Hello Community, I'm Harsh Sahu from India. I'm currently pursuing my masters degree in computer science and recently graduated from Udacity's Full Stack web Developer Nanodegree. I found project "Change Management Tool" very interesting because I already built few projects with those technologies. I recently deployed a RESTful Python webapp using AWS lightsail. Please give a try to my application ( http://167.99.5.18.xip.io/ ). I feel very confident about my work and very motivated for working with fedora. My primary skills are Python, C, Javascript, Databases, HTML/CSS. You can always see my work at https://github.com/codehawkdevs . Please guide me to get a chance for this opportunity at GSoC and fedora. Thanks and Regards, Harsh Sahu

Self introduction

by Elias Koydoynas

Hello everyone, My name is Elias Koudounas, I am undergraduate student at university of Piraeus on Informatics Department and volunteer Linux System administrator at Informatics labs. For 2 years now i am using fedora on my laptop, i always wanted contributing on open source projects and the GSoC is a good opportunity for me to learn and offer to the community which have helped me a lot. The project that got my attention is "release-bot" and the last week i have started to learn more about the project. Since this is my first contact with real life development and GSoC i have a couple of questions. (1) Can i have some tips about commiting and pushing or some guide? (2) Which should be the form of the proposal? I learn there is variety from community to community so i am not sure if i should follow google's guideline , any help appreciated (3) I did not understand where i should upload the draft proposal and the final -- Sincerely , Ηλίας Κουδούνας

Re: GSOC 2019 - Query Regarding iOS port of the android fedora app

We are not aiming to build an iOS port from scratch. Currently, the app does not build on iOS due to a couple of Android specific code I wrote last summer. Rather, the objective is to port a couple of native plugins to iOS (such as custombrowsertabs), make sure the app builds for iOS and verify that all the features work. An iOS release is currently not planned. The complete project idea is to enhance the functionality of the app --- iOS port, or rather build, is just one of the ideas among them and not the complete project. I would discourage building a complete port from scratch, it will be twice the maintenance effort, and we don't have many iOS developers in our community who could assist us in this task. Should you have any more questions, feel free to ask. Most of the discussions happen on summer-coding(a)lists.fedoraproject.org. I have cc'ed this email to the group, let's continue on this thread on the list itself. Best, Amitosh
