Open For Ideas! - This page contains some ideas from last year. This does not mean that they are valid for this year too. We are in the process of cleaning up the page.
We are moving away from the wiki to the Docs Website. Please do not look at the Student Application Period from the previous years' wiki pages as we are constantly adding new content to it and might be outdated

Find an idea you like? Want to propose your own? See our Student Application application guide on the Docs Website.


Students Welcome

If you are a student looking forward to participating in [2018] with Fedora, please feel free to browse this idea list which is still growing.

Do not hesitate to contact the mentors or contributors listed on this page for any questions or clarification. You can find helpful people on the #fedora-summer-coding[?] IRC channel, or use the summer-coding@lists.fedoraproject.org mailing list. #fedora-devel[?] can be used for getting help with programming problems.
