Inquiry Regarding Google Summer of Code 2025 and Required Skill Sets

[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
