I was decently good at MERN stack even last year, but when I tried to contribute to an organisation, I saw their monorepo and got overwhelmed. I only recently learnt what I saw was a monorepo and now I am confident to try again. Hopefully, it works.
Make also video on how to find gssoc organisation and read the code , also make a video on how to start contributing , it is very overwhelming to see so many issues in some org. github profile , and person leaves from that.
Instead of maintaining Open-Source a healthy and better space for real coders and programmers, These you-tubers are making it a competition. There was a time when people were voluntarily contributing code. But now everyone is just competing to get title and money out of it.
idk man, this honestly just makes me feel overwhelmed asf, feels like i have literally learnt nothing and im at rock bottom, im primarily a web dev(next, react, js/ts, etc..), i have only used firebase as db. i honestly still dont know 'how' to use node backend. cant code without help of AI. havent contributed at all, have no idea how to get started.
please make a video on how to set up an org and how we can determine where to contribute that would help us grow individually aswell as increase our chances of getting selected
one question why? Why you youtubers spoil the true spirit of open source? it is not competition, it is a value adding space. Use your skills to add value instead of competing.
Suggestion : Contribute to org / stack where you dont know much ( idk if it exists tbh , harkirat is bricked ) , and show how would you learn while contributing , thats the majority of student . Your past Videos you are contributing to org where you are already pretty good at / dont need to google or learn anything , showing how to navigate when you dont know too much.
@@vedant5019 thats the point showing hard stuff , other gsoc vids of harkirat is him contributing to JS/TS in which he has years of experience and working as a senior dev already ...
Hey Harkirat loved this video, can we get more videos on setting up dev env for orgs and contributing on a medium to hard project for orgs like Zulip maybe
6:01 Wherefrom at GSOC website, can this list of contributors per organization be viewed? Or should it be created, after manually checking contributors to the org's github projects?
I found this video not very helpful 👎 The main reason GSOC exists is to encourage people to contribute to open source. ❌ Don't participate GSOC for an internship! ✅Do GSOC to become a part of the open source community, and only participate in projects that align with your interests.
If college can skip assignments and attendance i will surely crack GSoC, win hackathons contribute to open source and learn new tech stacks and build good projects over it
as an ex GSoCer I can confirm its a waste of time. it will not help u in longer run. learning technologies only will not help u get into companies that are creating impactful product.
So sir, how will we analyze how much contribution has been made to which organization or not? As shown in the graph after your analysis. How will we find out?
Are you sure that OpenELIS Global will be in the GSOC 2025? They were only in GSOC 2024 and aside from that they weren't in any other GSOC. Please help!
bhaiyaa yaar,sab samaj aagaya hain ,github mein contribute bhi karna aata hain, par bhaiya apply kaise kare ye samaj nhi aata hain,google to khol liye but i dont know to apply,and their is no video that there is no video in youtube and its not show how to contribute.....please give the idea
Hey Harkirat, it would be great if you make a vid on "how to setup large projects/codebases locally" as its something I'm genuinely looking out for. So would urge you to do so!
hello, first year here. I am considering choosing C++ as my tech stack, but seeing that not many people are using it, I would like to know if it will be difficult to succeed in GSOC with C++. Could someone please help me?
I am a fresher working for a mnc (not a great one) so i am thinking to upgrade my resume with something practical and competitive like gsoc so can i do it with my job or would i need to leave the job if got selected for gsoc. ( I don't wanna leave the job as it was very tough to land a job in this recession period)
some orgs have too much of nepo, an African maintainer will choose a African mentee, it sounds stupid but I have witness it in first hand. that mentee have 1 contribution and still manage to get selected. a bitter truth but will keep on trying.
how will you spend your college life for cse if you have to do it again to get good internship and tier 1 job please bhaiya i need this video for 1st year btech student
making programming and open source like a JEE/NEET competition, nice!

Where did you learned mern ??? And how did you made projects ??
Tell me when I can start applying in gsoc like when the application for students open
what's a monorepo ? i am a newbie
Make also video on how to find gssoc organisation and read the code , also make a video on how to start contributing , it is very overwhelming to see so many issues in some org. github profile , and person leaves from that.

True
agreed
why not!?
And what made you think Competition is bad...?!
@@VaishnaviGaikwad-nf8lkikr exactly why not? As long as the work is getting done, getting the work done is all that matters
been waiting for this video!!
It was very informative
Thank you soo much!!

Nice , have u done any contribution?
Tell me when I can start applying in gsoc like when the application for students open
Always appreciate ur content 👏👏
Thank you so much for this precious guidance. 👍
Thanks! Just selected 2 orgs day before yesterday and this video dropped
which orgs did you choose
please make a video on how to set up an org and how we can determine where to contribute that would help us grow individually aswell as increase our chances of getting selected

You know why harkirat bhai ko utne view nahi milte because he spread only information and reality no timepass and all ...thats why ❤
sahi to hai , but the reality is loog use ke pass jate hain jo external motivation jayada dete hain like apka calege :)
true
Thank you harkirat!.
Harkirat Please make video for how to setup and how to do this all thing like write proposal and how we find mentors.

0:58 Can someone explain me why he didn't mention 4th/final year students here? Are they not supposed to participate in gsoc?
I am not at 0 in terms of my tech stack but definetly a beginner will come here again to update this comment when I've been selected in GSoC
eagerly waiting for the video from 1 month.
AMAZING!!!
working towards a better open source contributor,
will get into GSoC 2025
If college can skip assignments and attendance i will surely crack GSoC, win hackathons contribute to open source and learn new tech stacks and build good projects over it
Need a little push in the form of a blender repo may be settup or understanding how to do so for it.
