Your survival guide to GirlScript Summer of Code 2020.
Girlscript Summer Of Code is a 3-month long open source project under Girlscript Foundation India to build the main website of GirlScript, GirlScript mobile app and websites for various GirlScript Chapters. Not only for the accolades we have in our batch but also for the people new to opensource. Right from word go, be it basic git skills, first timers only issues or helping mentors hone their team leading and guiding skills - be it the rookie or the veteran dev - GirlScript Summer of Code offers something for everyone.
Girlscript Summer Of Code is a 3-month long open source project under Girlscript India. In this Summer Of Code, all the registered participants would get an exquisite opportunity to interact with the mentors and the Organizing Team from 18th February 2020 to 29th February 2020.
In this period they can extract any help or can resolve any sort of query or uncertainty that they might be having regarding the projects or it’s implementation. The team and the mentors will endeavour to provide the required help from their best possible resources. From 1st March onwards, the mentors will be declaring the issues of the Open Source Projects and the admins will be looking after the final structuring of the websites. If a participant is willing to work on a project, he/she will have to comment on the issue and make a pull request and if the mentor finds the work satisfactory, the participant would get the opportunity to work for the same.
The claiming of issues by the participants will be on a first come-first served basis. The participants would be continuously evaluated on all the projects that they contribute to and thereby the mentors will have to maintain a leaderboard and submit a biweekly evaluation of their respective mentees.
After the conclusion of event on 31st May 2020 the leaderboards of the mentors would be taken into consideration by the organizing team for the final evaluation of the participants and the result would be declared by 15th June 2020.
