I was decently good at MERN stack even last year, but when I tried to contribute to an organisation, I saw their monorepo and got overwhelmed. I only recently learnt what I saw was a monorepo and now I am confident to try again. Hopefully, it works.

[@Fireinme-oh2gz]

Where did you learned mern ??? And how did you made projects ??

[@mohitrobbin5401]

Tell me when I can start applying in gsoc like when the application for students open

[@harshvardhansingh4830]

what's a monorepo ? i am a newbie

[@syntaxstream2002]

this is what i was waiting for , will do my best

[@spondytoe6957]

Perfect time for this video! Leaving this comment out here as a promise to work hard and get into GSOC 💪🏻

He is basically selling pickaxe in goldrush.

[@satyamrajrawat5947]

hehe true

[@ridham2k4]

Make also video on how to find gssoc organisation and read the code , also make a video on how to start contributing , it is very overwhelming to see so many issues in some org. github profile , and person leaves from that.

[@Mr_Kaif__]

Thank you so much for this precious guidance. 👍

[@AyushKumar-n3p]

It was very informative Thank you soo much!!

[@pr4nj41ok]

Instead of maintaining Open-Source a healthy and better space for real coders and programmers, These you-tubers are making it a competition. There was a time when people were voluntarily contributing code. But now everyone is just competing to get title and money out of it.

[@deepakmaharana125]

True

[@Dushyant.baroliya]

agreed

[@VaishnaviGaikwad-nf8lk]

why not!?

[@sparshkhanna]

And what made you think Competition is bad...?!

[@user-lj3qs9qf5w]

@@VaishnaviGaikwad-nf8lkikr exactly why not? As long as the work is getting done, getting the work done is all that matters

[@Bitofmeforyou]

Thanks! Just selected 2 orgs day before yesterday and this video dropped

[@ShubhamSingh-vn7cp]

which orgs did you choose

[@cityisbetter]

idk man, this honestly just makes me feel overwhelmed asf, feels like i have literally learnt nothing and im at rock bottom, im primarily a web dev(next, react, js/ts, etc..), i have only used firebase as db. i honestly still dont know 'how' to use node backend. cant code without help of AI. havent contributed at all, have no idea how to get started.

[@cityisbetter]

the meme at the end is literally pointed towards me

[@varshith14]

I feel you mate

[@avvjt]

Same problem

[@Sonic_soul07]

which year bro???

[@cityisbetter]

@@Sonic_soul07 doing 3rd year rn, 0 internships, 0 projects under profs. only personal projects done and uploaded in github (/CityIsBetter)

[@LikhitSB]

Thank you harkirat!.

[@tusharthakur15]

Thanks for the roadmap! I’ve chosen Webpack for GSoC 2025. Looking forward to any tips!

[@StrawDev]

Nice , have u done any contribution?

[@mohitrobbin5401]

Tell me when I can start applying in gsoc like when the application for students open

[@sushisrotten]

please make a video on how to set up an org and how we can determine where to contribute that would help us grow individually aswell as increase our chances of getting selected

[@engrvivs]

6:01 Wherefrom at GSOC website, can this list of contributors per organization be viewed? Or should it be created, after manually checking contributors to the org's github projects?

[@entrepreneur5872]

Thankyou so much sir for this help 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉se 🎉

[@funnyoceanofmemes1656]

thanks this was very helpful

[@cricketandfootballshorts5512]

You know why harkirat bhai ko utne view nahi milte because he spread only information and reality no timepass and all ...thats why ❤

[@Flux-e4y]

sahi to hai , but the reality is loog use ke pass jate hain jo external motivation jayada dete hain like apka calege :)

[@ashutoshaditya1564]

true

[@chethanm6713]

Perfect timing 🤝

[@smxth08]

Was waiting for this video🥹

[@misterh9362]

one question why? Why you youtubers spoil the true spirit of open source? it is not competition, it is a value adding space. Use your skills to add value instead of competing.

[@JAY_VEGAD]

Harkirat Please make video for how to setup and how to do this all thing like write proposal and how we find mentors.

[@secondthread-uc9bd]

Suggestion : Contribute to org / stack where you dont know much ( idk if it exists tbh , harkirat is bricked ) , and show how would you learn while contributing , thats the majority of student . Your past Videos you are contributing to org where you are already pretty good at / dont need to google or learn anything , showing how to navigate when you dont know too much.

[@vedant5019]

Codebase reading and understanding is very hard

[@secondthread-uc9bd]

@@vedant5019 thats the point showing hard stuff , other gsoc vids of harkirat is him contributing to JS/TS in which he has years of experience and working as a senior dev already ...

[@lettechtutorials]

I am from Lahore Pakistan, Good Video

[@parthsolanke6549]

Hey Harkirat loved this video, can we get more videos on setting up dev env for orgs and contributing on a medium to hard project for orgs like Zulip maybe

[@paramjjethwa8734]

AMAZING!!!

[@ashutoshaditya1564]

I am not at 0 in terms of my tech stack but definetly a beginner will come here again to update this comment when I've been selected in GSoC

[@alimahdi1012]

0:58 Can someone explain me why he didn't mention 4th/final year students here? Are they not supposed to participate in gsoc?

[@mr.emditor]

If college can skip assignments and attendance i will surely crack GSoC, win hackathons contribute to open source and learn new tech stacks and build good projects over it

[@hackerstech8079]

Thanks bhai✨

can a single student participate in gsoc competition as individual?

[@curiosity8396]

I will passout in 2025 , can i apply for gsoc ?

[@nurmohammed9642]

I found this video not very helpful 👎 The main reason GSOC exists is to encourage people to contribute to open source. ❌ Don't participate GSOC for an internship! ✅Do GSOC to become a part of the open source community, and only participate in projects that align with your interests.

[@arvinder_singh004]
