Dear Wade, Thank you for your interest. As you are likely aware, our ideas page (https://wiki.sagemath.org/GSoC/2023) has the relevant information on drafting a proposal. Perhaps Matthias can say something more, but I think you should also get acquainted with some basics of manifolds and/or differential geometry as the current primary application is for performing such computations. This will help in better understanding how the backend code will be utilized. There are a number of resources available online on these subjects (I have found Wikipedia can be a reasonable first place to start, but that could be biased by my math background).
