Hello Everyone! I’m Kritika Rag, a Computer Science pre-final year undergraduate student from India. I’m quite passionate about web development and competitive programming and now I’m looking forward to contributing to open-source projects. I believe that GSOC 2023 would provide me with the best way to start my open-source contribution journey. Since I’m a competitive programmer, I have excellent command over Data Structures & Algorithms and my primary language is C++, so C++ and GCC are something that I use daily, therefore I would love to make my contributions to GCC projects. I sincerely hope that this community will provide me with the opportunity to do so and to work alongside them.
I’m proficient in various coding languages like C/C++, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, React, and Python, and have experimented with Git, Linux, APIs, etc. I have also been fortunate enough to secure 3 internships, 2 as a DSA problem setter and 1 as a research intern. I have also participated in a few open-source programs like Hack October Fest 2022 and GWoC 2022 and contributed to web development and data science projects. I had been checking up on recent project proposals listed in GCC wiki for the past 3 weeks and was interested in working either on the project which aims to improve the utility routine library used by GCC or related to Bug Patrol especially analyzing failing test cases (this was present over the site a while ago but now I can't see it anywhere) so I just wanted to ask can I choose it as my GSoC 2023 project? If yes can anyone guide me to whom to connect to discuss it? And if I can't work on the above ideas then I have also gone through the selected project ideas and want to work on the project "Implement comp built-in traits for the standard library traits" so would be grateful if anyone could guide me here also. Thank you so much and I hope to hear from you soon.
