<p>According to an estimation, over 15% or one billion people of the total world population experience significant disabilities. These disabilities can be major or minor but the barriers in social and economic sectors for such people are the same. Even in the field of technology, people with disabilities are usually ignored. They find it tough to use websites and mobile applications. Considering such people a part of society and to make the live chat widget accessible to such people, I will implement a user-accessible mode. This accessible mode will help them to use the exciting features of the live chat widget.</p>

<p>The current hurd's ext2fs server uses a reversed field in inode to store passive translator setting. It is a ad-hoc method and causes that hurd's file system can not work well on other system. Implement xattr support can help hurd store this data in a more general way.</p>

The project's objective is to create a Rocket.Chat app that can create multiple bots with the ability to give all of the essential Botpress features inside of all key chat spaces (Direct, Channel, and Omnichannel).

<p>Riak KV is an open source database with a strong focus on low latency, reliability and fault tolerance. Like any well tested computer system, batteries of tests are run to make sure that the database behaves correctly in typical but also adverse conditions such as network partitions, or even the deployment and upgrade process of nodes running different versions in the same cluster. To this end, one of the resources used by the Riak team is <a href="https://github.com/basho/riak_test" target="_blank">riak_test</a>. Its main function is to provide a test running framework that overlaps significantly with Common Test, but it also contains cluster management and code intercept functionalities. We propose to break up this repository into its discrete components, making important contributions to the Erlang community and adapting the test runner framework into Common Test suites, vastly increasing the reporting ability of current Riak tests.</p>

<p>The proposed project gives user the ability to create voice channels that would allow users to quickly enter and leave pre-existing voice calls from Rocket.Chat's own UI, enabling a more practical usage of audio features for team collaboration. Also adding the UI elements and integrating them with an established audio platform to handle calls.</p>

Every year, it is understandable that open-source organisations invest a significant amount of time and effort in preparing for GSoC. That's why the Google Summer of Code Community Hub will act as an essential tool to help prepare and support every organisation before and during the program. The GSoC Community Hub is designed to be a one-stop-shop for open-source groups to interact, collaborate, and monitor their progress before and during GSoC. It provides an all-in-one platform that combines chat rooms, forums, custom leaderboard, community meetings, communication over specific GitHub repositories, and other essential features, making it easier for mentors and mentees to find and collaborate on relevant projects.

<p>Dungeon Master, the grandfather of all dungeon crawlers, would be the very first RPG ported onto ScummVM and will enable for the fans, who grew up with it, as well as new adventurers to experience it once more. The game will also benefit from the advanced features offered by ScummVM, most significant of which is portability.</p>

<p>Integration with Google cloud storage is a long requested feature in Rocket.Chat. This project aims to integrate Google Drive and Dropbox storage with Rocket.Chat, thereby allowing users to authorize Rocket.Chat to access their Drive/Dropbox accounts in exchange for a bunch of features. These include (i) upload content to Drive/Dropbox accounts directly from Rocket.Chat, (ii) create Google docs, slides and spreadsheets in Rocket.Chat for enhanced real-time collaboration, (iii) browse and download Drive/Dropbox content from Rocket.Chat using GUIs that respective APIs provide, (iv) supporting features such as file preview for Drive content and finally, rigorous tests for the project implementation.</p>

<p>To create an Angular 4 based Progressive Web App (PWA) lite client that would be able to used as an alternative of native clients like Rocket.Chat.Android or Rocket.Chat.iOS client.</p>

The current mobile UI testing framework for the Rocket.Chat Mobile app, Detox, poses several challenges including flaky test results, steep debugging overhead, and limited cross-platform capabilities. This project proposes a complete migration to Maestro, a modern and actively-maintained mobile UI testing framework designed to deliver more stable tests, simplified test authoring, and enhanced developer experience. The primary objective of this proposal is to improve the reliability, maintainability, and clarity of UI testing for the Rocket.Chat mobile codebase by setting up Maestro, converting existing tests, expanding test coverage, and integrating the testing pipeline into GitHub Actions CI/CD workflow.

Rocket.Chat relies on Agenda to schedule and run critical background jobs, but administrators have no way to monitor or manage them without directly querying MongoDB. This project will build a dedicated Agenda Jobs Admin Page inside the Rocket.Chat admin panel, giving administrators full visibility and control over background jobs. The implementation will deliver a service layer deriving job status from existing Agenda metadata, six REST API endpoints, and a React admin UI built with Fuselage showing job status, execution history, failure details, and one-click actions to trigger, disable, or enable jobs.

<p>The idea is to implement cloud support in ScummVM. Users would be able to sync their save files and download game data from different cloud storage services on all their devices.</p> <p>At least these cloud services would be supported:</p> <ul> <li>Dropbox;</li> <li>Box;</li> <li>OneDrive;</li> <li>Google Drive.</li> </ul> <p>All of them use OAuth2 and provide an API to manage user's files.</p> <p>Things to be implemented:</p> <ul> <li>GUI for user to interact with;</li> <li>more or less portable way to open a link in a browser (for OAuth);</li> <li>more or less portable way to run a local webserver (for OAuth);</li> <li>portable (using libcurl) API interaction for all supported cloud services.</li> </ul> <p>Possible mentors: <a href="http://scummvm.org/index.php/User:Sev" target="_blank">Eugene Sandulenko</a>, <a href="http://scummvm.org/index.php/User:Uruk" target="_blank">Peter Bozso</a>.</p>

<p>The idea of this project is to design and create all needed components for a vulnerabilities report system in Hex packages integrated in the <a href="https://hex.pm/" target="_blank">https://hex.pm/</a> website. The essential objective of the system would be to provide a method for the user to inform and stay informed about the status of vulnerability reports and packages, allowing him to personalize his experience with a followed packages list.</p>

<p>GNU MediaGoblin is a well known free software media publishing platform where people can see and share their media. Even though we can think of it as an alternative to YouTube or SoundCloud, there are some missing features. The primary goal of this project is to improve the existing video player by adding an option for multiple resolutions.</p> <p>During the start of this project, I plan to work on transcoding the uploaded video into possible multiple qualities like 360p, 480p, 720p, 1080p and 4K. But there is a glitch here because transcoding the video into so many qualities may take too much time.</p> <p>Hence, I plan to use Celery's prioritized tasking with Rabbitmq to tackle this problem. The video will be rendered to the user just after the video is transcoded to 480p, and then subsequently the option for different qualities is given as and when the video is transcoded to that quality.</p> <p>At the end of the project, I will be handling the front-end part of the project where the option to choose different resolutions will be added to the video player. I also plan to extend on the idea where if the user's internet speed is low at page load, then a lower quality of the video should be rendered.</p>

<p>This project is about developing a secure and private auctioning library incorporating an <a href="http://dss.in.tum.de/files/brandt-research/ijis2006.pdf" target="_blank">algorithm</a> by Felix Brandt. We modified the algorithm to use Ed25519 as a cryptographic primitive for simplicity and speed in the outcome calculation.</p> <p>In the end the library should be usable in conjunction with <a href="https://taler.net/" target="_blank">TALER</a> as the payment system to provide a cryptographically protected alternative to eBay and other centralized auctioning platforms.</p> <p>The code can be cloned from <a href="git://gnunet.org/libbrandt" target="_blank">git://gnunet.org/libbrandt</a></p>

<p>Proposal for App: Bad-Words Filter. Rocket.Chat is Teams collaboration platform where people from different parts of world come together and collaborate. Some people can be toxic at times and can use harsh words against fellow members. This app can be helpful for Rocket.Chat platform for filtering bad-words.</p>

As Generative AI technology is improving and being implemented in various applications, I am interested in using it in Rocket.Chat. While we already have a Giphy App that can fetch GIFs from Giphy, I propose to create an RC app that can generate GIFs based on user prompts. The RC app will allow users to enter their prompts, wait for the generation process, and then use the generated GIF seamlessly anywhere. We will be using an open-source & self-deployed model to generate the GIF. To ensure the app can serve multiple users in parallel, we will use the concept of databases as Task Queues, to store the status of multiple GIF generations in parallel. Excited to see what people generate using this feature.✨🚀

<p>All changes in the Barrel databases and indexes (updates, creations and deletions) can be retrieved in Barrel using the HTTP API. There are many usages for such a log. The replication in barrel is based on it. Having a way to send these changes via RabbitMQ would open it to more applications and usages.</p>

RocketChat UIKit Playground is a proposed Component playground that will allow us to build, test, and browse our UIKit components in isolation. When executed correctly, they make prototyping new experiences both easy and fast, thanks to the consistency they create. The playground should also allow developers to generate configuration by dragging and dropping components from the library. Deployed Here --> https://intvivek.github.io/RCplayground/

<p>Improve the Rust implementation of GNUnet utils, possibly including adding support for asynchronous IO using mio, or perhaps a higher level asynchronous IO library built upon it, such as rotor, mioco, eventual_io, or gj.</p>

<p>Lasp computations are formed using a small subset of a functional language. In functional languages, it is very common to see intermediate lists—and, more generally, intermediate trees—serve as glue between functions. If these intermediate structures, however, are not used by any other part of the program, replicating them in the underlying network that supports the Lasp language exacts a non-negligible cost at run-time.</p> <p>This project aims to enable Lasp to generate efficient reductions of these intermediate trees into a single value that represents the combination of multiple functions.</p>

Description- This Project is related to a Code tour using Visual Studio Code Tour Extension and the main focus of this project is to make the development and understanding of the codebase Easier for the new contributors who are new to Open-Source and create future Gsoccers. Since Rocket.chat's codebase is huge, many new developers face problem understanding code and they find it overwhelming, It would be great to motivate them to work towards Open-Source community

This project proposes a short-lived, cryptographically signed QR code on the Rocket.Chat's web client login screen, which authenticated mobile app users can scan to log in to the web client instantly—eliminating the need for manual credential entry. By leveraging ephemeral tokens that refresh every 60 seconds and real-time notifications over WebSocket, the approach safeguards user sessions while streamlining the login experience. Specifically, the solution integrates secure token generation and validation in Node.js, a React-based desktop UI displaying the QR code, and a React Native-based scanner accessible only to authenticated mobile users. This modern, frictionless authentication method enhances both usability and security within the Rocket.Chat ecosystem.
