Guidelines
Information for Students
This page is for collecting ideas for Google Code-in tasks. The tasks will be moved into the GCi app for you to claim when appropriate.
Adding a Proposal
Please only add proposals you are willing to mentor!
Please keep in mind that the tasks are going to be solved by 13 to 17 year olds. We have a particular need for beginner tasks.
When adding an idea to this section, please try to include the following data:
- a brief explanation
- the expected results
- prerequisites for working on your project if any
- if applicable, links to more information or discussions
- your name and email address for contact
The proposals should be ordered by area:
- Code: Tasks related to writing or refactoring code
- Documentation/Training: Tasks related to creating/editing documents and helping others learn more
- Outreach/research: Tasks related to community management, outreach/marketing, or studying problems and recommending solutions
- Quality Assurance: Tasks related to testing and ensuring code is of high quality
- User Interface: Tasks related to user experience research or user interface design and interaction
If you have a good idea for a proposal but are not going to mentor it, get in contact with relevant team/contributor first.

Beginner: Connect to the #KDE-soc channel on freenode, introduce yourself, and have a conversation with someone
- To connect to IRC, either install and use a client, such as KDE's Konversation, mIRC on Windows, or Colloquoy on Mac; OR use webchat: https://webchat.freenode.net/
- Once you have connected to irc.freenode.net, join the #kde-soc channel (/join #kde-soc) and introduce yourself. Explain that you are doing a beginner GCi task, and that to finish that, you need to talk to someone. You might ask questions that help you in your future tasks, as IRC is how many of us communicate on a daily basis.
- Submit a screenshot of the beginning or end of the conversation.
