Call for Participants Summer of Nix 2024

Apply for the Summer of Nix 2024 to join one of four teams in making selected free and open source software (FOSS) projects work reliably on a whim using Nix and NixOS. The Summer of Nix is a rare opportunity for students or early-career professionals with diverse technical skills and interests to practice disciplined software development with Nix while contributing to the public good and receiving some payment for it in the form of a stipend. For more information on how to apply, timelines and eligibility criteria go to Github.com/ngi-nix/summer-of-nix or Discourse.nixos.org It is important for a project that is meant to scale to gather traction as early as possible. This way the project is able to have a cross-distro development and delivery system that is easy to integrate with continuous integration, and allows anyone to easily check in to the development process of the projects. NGI Zero is made possible with financial support from the European Commission's Next Generation Internet programme, under the aegis of DG Communications Networks, Content and Technology.
