What is Google Summer of Code?
Google Summer of Code (GSoC) is a global program that offers students the opportunity to contribute to open-source software development. Participants receive mentorship, gain valuable experience, and earn a stipend. It's a fantastic opportunity for students to enhance their skills and build their portfolios.

What is Open source?
Open source refers to software whose source code is freely available for anyone to view, use, modify, and distribute. Instead of being owned by a single company, open-source projects are developed collaboratively by a global community of developers.

Why should one contribute to open source?
Contributing to open source offers numerous benefits for developers. It allows you to enhance your coding skills by working on real-world projects and collaborating with experienced developers. Building a strong portfolio with open-source contributions can significantly boost your career prospects. Moreover, you have the opportunity to give back to the community by contributing to projects that benefit everyone.
