But this year's GSoC was a bit different for me than last year's, considering a few points 🧵👇

@Google
When did Google force someone to spend 100s of hours doing all of these? If someone doesn't have a passion for open-source, then it's better for him/her to stay away. Also, they have very limited slots, so it's not practically possible to accept all of the applicants.

From staying awake all night to build hackathon projects in my college days, to staying awake and helping the participants to fix the bugs in their code and guide the teams to build better solutions, and then judging their solutions, it's been a long and amazing journey.

Note: Next.js 13 with Turbopack doesn't support Tailwind CSS out of the box.
It will still not work even if you follow the steps in the updated `Tailwind CSS with Next.js` documentation.

But I tried my best to devote some time this summer to the Sugar Labs open-source community, and it was totally worth it. I still remember submitting the proposal on the last day and not even sleeping the previous two whole nights to complete it, and that too with a high fever.

Shipped neoenv v1.3.0 🚀
v1.2.0(upper) vs v1.3.0(bottom)
- Compressed the package size by 70.25% from 36.3 kB to 10.8 kB
- Total build files reduced from 23 to 9
Do you want to know how I got these stats just by changing the build process, without changing the source code? 🤯

Rejection from GSoC doesn't mean the end of the career. He/she can apply again next year with improved proposals and contributions. Good developers and open-source contributors don't even require the GSoC tag, their contributions speak for themselves.

Only if you've a strong foundational knowledge of Python (including some advanced concepts like Decorators and Classes). But I'll still suggest starting with the simple ones like Flask or FastAPI since they don't have lots of boilerplate code, unlike Django.

You don't need to understand the whole codebase from the very beginning. Start with beginner-friendly issues, understand where you need to make the changes, and gradually you'll get an overview of the code structure.

I created a fresh Next.js v13 project with Turbopack and followed the steps in the Tailwind CSS docs to configure it.
But it wasn't working!
It took me half an hour to figure it out when the CLI gave me a warning after restarting the server for the 5th time :)

16GB RAM with 1TB SSD storage, also chose the 70W USB-C Power Adapter instead of the 35W Dual USB-C Port Power Adapter. Everything costs around 1.82 lakhs, including the UNiDAYS discount (paid 1k extra for the MagSafe Charging Case for the AirPods).
