Aspiring applicants are encouraged to [learn Dart](https://dart.dev/guides/language/language-tour) and try to write some code. + +Applicants are welcome to find and fix bugs in [Dart](https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk) or some of the [packages written by the Dart team](https://pub.dev/publishers/dart.dev/packages). However, getting reviews can take a long time as code owners may be busy working on new features. So instead of requiring applicants to fix a _good first bug_, we +suggest that applicants write a working code sample relevant for the proposed project. + +The code sample can be attached to the application as a [**secret** gist](https://gist.github.com/) (please use _secret gists_, and do not share these with other applicants). Suggested ideas below includes proposed "Good Sample Projects". + +**Do not spend too much energy on this piece of sample code**, we just want to see +that you can code something relevant -- and that this sample code can run and do something non-trivial. Be aware that we have a limited number of +mentors available, and will only be able to accept a few applicants. + +Applications can be submitted through the [summerofcode.withgoogle.com](https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/) website. Applicants are encouraged to submit draft proposals, linking to Google Docs with permission for mentors to comment. See also the [contributor guide](https://google.github.io/gsocguides/student/writing-a-proposal) on writing a proposal. + +**IMPORTANT**: Remember to submit _final proposals_ before [the April 8th deadline](https://developers.google.com/open-source/gsoc/timeline). + +## TODO: More ideas as they come! + +# Template: + +Copy this template. + +## **Idea:** ... + + - **Possible Mentor(s)**: + - **Difficulty**: Easy / Hard + - **Project size**: Small (90) / Medium (175 hours) / Large (350 hours) + - **Skills**: ... + +**Description**: ... + +**Good Sample Project**: ... + +**Expected outcome**: ...
