You can suggest ideas for cohort calls, and host these calls. They are informal, get 5-15 engaged attendees, and can be a good way to present ideas and get feedback. If another platform (not Discord) is better for the kind of community input you're looking for, just let us know ahead of time so we can share/repost on social media.
Optional: consider adding your proposal to the example proposals directory for future applicants!
- Cohort check-ins every other Thursday at 11am ET, starting May 28st, 2026. In the timeline above, each week marked with "💡" has a cohort meeting. All contributors are encouraged to attend, and mentors are welcome when they can! These will be structured around giving more in-depth project updates to the others in the cohort for support and feedback.
- Update the cohort timeline. Each cell can be: a link (e.g., something you want feedback on, or a technical documentation you're currently reading, a gist or draft PR describing something you're struggling with), a p5.js sketch, or some emojis ⛅🦎🪨
- Check the updates others in the cohort are making! Check at least one link shared by someone else / leave at least one comment/feedback.
- Highly encouraged: Be active in one of the online community spaces (GitHub repo(s), Discord Server, or Discourse Forum) and reply to a discussion / leave a review comment / help debug a sketch.
- Sometimes there are roadblocks and setbacks, and that's ok! You can always ask for help here, to your mentor, or in the GSoC discord channel. Ask for help as early as you need it.
Nearly a thousand contributors have built p5.js (for >10 years) and Processing Java (for ~25 years) together.
These software projects are supported by the Processing Foundation team. Besides GSoC, Processing Foundation supports development work through programs and collaborations.
