Google Summer of Code is an annual program that provides paid internships all adults to work on free software projects.

2022

Mixxx will apply for taking part in GSoC 2022

This year Google has announced a set of changes. GSoC is no longer limited to students, but open to all adults. The project length is now more flexible and can be adjusted for medium ~175 hours or larger ~350 hours projects. These hours can be timed into a 22 week period. More details can be found in the Google Open-Source Blog.

This year we considering to offer mainly medium sized projects projects, consisting smaller tasks that suits to get familiar with Mixxx's code base, C++ and our community at the whole. We have collected many wishlist bugs and stalled projects which are important for some users but have not yet attracted a contributor to spend his spare time.

Past Years

2021

Mixxx applied as a mentor organization for Google Summer of Code, 2021 but was declined this year in order to make room for newer organizations

To all the students who were interested, you don't have to get involved with Mixxx through GSoC! If you'd like we can work with you to scope out a project and get your work in the hands of DJs worldwide. Working on Mixxx (and open source in general) is a great learning experience and also looks good on a resume.

GSoC 2021 has announced a few changes. The most significant change is the halved project size. For more details read here

This means we have to change the type of project we can offer. In the past we took the chance to start long wanted projects that are hard to do as a spare time contributor, because they require lot of time at a stretch and research.

We have collected many wishlist bugs and stalled projects which are important for some users but have not yet attracted a contributor to spend his spare time.
