− | I am new in open source and I want to work in open source because I believe in software freedom. I use GNU/Linux for my day-to-day work and software development. I also use several other open source services like Libreoffice, Moodle, Mozilla-Firefox etc. Open-Source development has introduced me to a whole new world of software development which I was unaware of previously. It has been a great experience to learn new technologies and to work on softwares to make contributions to the society from my sophomore year itself. I think it would be the best utilization of my summer holidays to work on an open-source project this summer. | + | I am new in open source and I want to work in open source because I believe in software freedom.

It has been a great experience to learn new frameworks and to work on building something new using them from my sophomore year itself. I have enjoyed my journey of getting to know people on irc and mailing lists while applying for GSoC and learning from them. It's amazing how people from different time zones can come together to work as a community. I think it would be the best utilization of my summer holidays to work on an open-source project this summer. |

| + | For development of these games I'll be using web development languages like HTML , CSS and Javascript for basic game shell. The framework I'll be using for game development is Phaser (<nowiki>http://phaser.io/</nowiki>). It provides a fast, free and fun open source framework for canvas and WebGL powered browser games. Along with these I'll be using Inkscape or any other similar tool to produce artworks used in the games. |
