 You are encouraged to reference the project idea list below to find several potential projects suited to your experience, interest, and choice of scope. Then, you must reach out to a [core team member](/about#core-team) through Discord to discuss your plan in detail before writing a proposal. This will help you understand the project's scope and requirements and develop a detailed timeline for your expected summer-long work schedule. Importantly, it will also help us understand your background and capabilities to offer you feedback and suggestions for the best outcome in the competitive applicant selection process.

 - **Work timeline:** Your goal is to write a proposal that inspires confidence in your ability to successfully complete the project, which means understanding in detail what's involved at a technical level and how you plan to tackle it. A detailed work timeline is the most important written part of your proposal. It should be broken into weekly or bi-weekly milestones with a couple sentences of technical detail. The summary in the project idea list below doesn't give enough information to develop a timeline, so you'll need to discuss this with the core team on Discord.
 - **Prior PRs:** The largest factor in our selection decision will be the quality and extent of your prior contributions to Graphite made during the proposal formulation period (or before, if applicable). Include a link to `https://github.com/GraphiteEditor/Graphite/commits?author=YOUR_GITHUB_USERNAME` in your proposal and feel free to write up a summary of what you've contributed and learned from the process. You may also keep contributing during the month after applications close, before we've finalized our selections, for those additional PRs to be considered.
