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.
