The objective is to help you get familiar with the project and the process of raising & working on a PR for API Dash.

[JocelynVelarde]

Hello! I’m interested on helping to contribute on a “Good First Issue”, any recommendations on which ones are missing so I can take one.

Greetings!

[animator]

@JocelynVelarde Kindly submit your proposal in the GSoC website as soon as possible as the application window will end soon.

[JocelynVelarde]

Oh yes!! But I saw on the submissions guideline that it was recommended to finish a good first issue, is that correct? ✅

[animator]

@JocelynVelarde That was before the application window opened. Right now your priority should be to submit a proposal first. Thanks.

[weeebhu]

Hey everyone!
I'm super excited to contribute to API Dash as part of Google Summer of Code 2025! The project looks amazing, and I can't wait to start working on DashBot, the AI-powered assistant to supercharge API workflows.
I'll begin by exploring the codebase, setting up the development environment, and picking up my first contribution. Looking forward to collaborating with the community and learning along the way!
Huge thanks to the mentors and maintainers for this opportunity.

[animator]

@weeebhu Submit your proposal in the GSoC website as soon as possible as the application window will close very soon.

[weeebhu]

Super excited to contribute to API Dash and build DashBot! Can’t wait to work on AI-powered automation for debugging, documentation, and testing—making API development smarter and more efficient. Looking forward to learning, collaborating, and making an impact!

[animator]

@weeebhu Submit your proposal in the GSoC website as soon as possible as the application window will close very soon.

[TramTonne]

Hi, I am excited to join as a contributor, even though I know it's a little late for the process, I wish I know about this opportunity earlier, I tried to submit the proposal in GSoC website but I could not do so I wonder if the application window already closed? Thank you for your assistance.

[animator]

@TramTonne Application window has not yet closed. You can submit an application in the GSoC portal as soon as possible.

[Sumit-Pluto]

This project is truly close to my heart. Although I’ve come across it a bit late, I’m eager to start contributing right away—especially on the crucial issues where I believe I can make a meaningful impact

[animator]

@Sumit-Pluto Thanks. Application window has not yet closed. You can submit an application in the GSoC website as soon as possible.
