Request for GSOC 2026

[Ujjwal Jain]

Dear Sir/Madame,

I hope you're doing well.

My name is Ujjwal Jain, I am current a third year student at BITS Pilani, and I’m deeply interested in contributing to LibreOffice as part of Google Summer of Code (GSoC) in 2026. As I am a user of linux, I deeply admire the work your organization does in the open-source community as , and I would love the opportunity to get involved.

I’m writing to ask how I can start contributing to your projects even before the official GSoC period begins so that I can apply fully prepared. I’m eager to familiarize myself with your codebase, understand the needs of the community, and gain practical experience by solving real-world problems.

Could you please guide me on this subject?

I'm comfortable with C++ and python, I have a peak rating of 1445 on codeforces (id: masteroojway), and I’m always open to learning more as needed.

Looking forward to your guidance, and thank you for the work you do in building impactful open-source software.

Warm regards,
Ujjwal Jain.
