Hello GSoC

Google Summer of Code is a global program that offers post-secondary student developers ages 18 and older stipends to write code for various open source software projects. Through Google Summer of Code, accepted student applicants are paired with a mentor or mentors from the participating projects, thus gaining exposure to real-world software development scenarios and the opportunity for employment in areas related to their academic pursuits. In turn, the participating projects are able to more easily identify and bring in new developers. Best of all, more source code is created and released for the use and benefit of all.

I have applied to GSoC this month and I am very excited about it. I found an interesting project under Vispy (under the umbrella of the Python Software Foundation) that really suits my skills.  Vispy is a real-time interactive scientific visualization library written in python. Since web based visualization has a high potential, I have chosen to bring Vispy to the browser.

I hope I will be working on this project during this summer.
