[Mohamed Mahmoud Badawy]

Dear FreeType Team,

I hope this message finds you well. My name is Mohamed, and I am currently pursuing a degree in computer engineering with a keen interest in compilers, operating systems, databases, data structures, algorithms, C++, and _javascript_. As I delve deeper into these subjects, I am eager to explore opportunities that could enhance my practical skills and knowledge in the field.

I am particularly interested in participating in the Google Summer of Code program in 2025 and contributing to projects that align with my academic focus. In this regard, I would like to inquire whether FreeType will be participating in the upcoming Google Summer of Code.

If FreeType is involved in the program, I would greatly appreciate it if you could provide me with insights into the specific skills and qualifications that would be beneficial for prospective participants. Understanding the key competencies required to excel in projects related to FreeType, including data structures, algorithms, C++, and _javascript_, would not only aid in my preparation but also enable me to make a meaningful contribution to the open-source community.

Thank you for considering my query. I look forward to any information or guidance you can offer regarding the Google Summer of Code program and the skill sets essential for participation.

Warm regards,

Mohamed
