Important
By May 10, 2026, please confirm with org admin that your project title/description here is accurate and complete (or make changes by then)
- Feedback post. Add link(s) to your blog post(s); social media post(s); Discourse post(s); or GitHub post(s) to the table above, and check out the posts of others in your cohort! This can include a announcement, but the focus should be on:
- sharing your intent with the project and
- making a specific request for community input or feedback (or stating when you plan to get community input)
- Optional: join one or two of the Discord voice chats to get a sense of how these go, and if they could be a useful platform for you to get input. These include:
- p5.js-website on Mondays 5pm CET (discord.p5js.org)
- p5 strands code-along monthly - but extra one this Friday May 8 5pm CET (discord.p5js.org)
- p5.sound.js update and code-along - Friday May 29th 5pm CET (discord.p5js.org)
- Processing weekly call on Tuesdays 6pm CET (discord.processing.org)
- You can suggest ideas for other calls, and host these calls. They are informal, get 5-15 engaged attendees, and can be a good way to present ideas and get feedback. If another platform (not Discord) is better for the kind of community input you're looking for, just let us know ahead of time so we can share/repost on social media.
- Optional: consider adding your proposal to the example proposals directory for future applicants!
Note
Next deadline: Jul 9, 2026. (All GSoC Project Dates.) Following deadlines is very important for an organization to be selected as a mentor organization.
- Cohort check-ins every other Thursday at 11am ET, starting May 28st, 2026. In the timeline above, each week marked with "💡" has a cohort meeting. All contributors are encouraged to attend, and mentors are welcome when they can! These will be structured around giving more in-depth project updates to the others in the cohort for support and feedback.
- Update the cohort timeline. Each cell can be: a link (e.g., something you want feedback on, or a technical documentation you're currently reading, a gist or draft PR describing something you're struggling with), a p5.js sketch, or some emojis ⛅🦎🪨
- Check the updates others in the cohort are making! Check at least one link shared by someone else / leave at least one comment/feedback.
- Highly encouraged: Be active in one of the online community spaces (GitHub repo(s), Discord Server, or Discourse Forum) and reply to a discussion / leave a review comment / help debug a sketch.
- Sometimes there are roadblocks and setbacks, and that's ok! You can always ask for help here, to your mentor, or in the GSoC discord channel. Ask for help as early as you need it.
Nearly a thousand contributors have built p5.js (for >10 years) and Processing Java (for ~25 years) together.
These software projects are supported by the Processing Foundation team. Besides GSoC, Processing Foundation supports development work through programs and collaborations.
