The number of activities (visually attractiveǃ) that I had developed since last year shows my dedication towards Sugar community. | |||
My developer profile - [http://activities.sugarlabs.org/en-US/sugar/user/13555 http://activities.sugarlabs.org/en-US/sugar/user/13555]<br> | |||
I have also been contributing to The Processing Foundation since last December which made me. (commits linked above) | |||
I have also worked on some projects in my school, knowledge of which will help me in accomplishing the proposed tasks for this summer- | |||
* Design a GUI on JavaFX and Swing with basic Git features like branch, merge, diff, commit, revert, etc. alongwith Dropbox API integration to provide online repository storage- [https://github.com/iamutkarshtiwari/raptor https://github.com/iamutkarshtiwari/raptor] | |||

* If your project is successfully completed, what will its impact be on the Sugar Labs community? Give 3 answers, each 1-3 paragraphs in length. The first one should be yours. The other two should be answers from members of the Sugar Labs community, at least one of whom should be a Sugar Labs GSoC mentor. Provide email contact information for non-GSoC mentors. | * '''If your project is successfully completed, what will its impact be on the Sugar Labs community?

If my mentor is not around, there would be other open source developers on IRC whom I can reach out for help. I also have a lot of seniors in my college who have been working on wide range of open source projects (like MWOS, OWASP, GSoC) and they are very helpful. So there are a lot of ways I can tackle a problem I'm stuck on when my mentor isn't available. Well thoughout my previous development experience 'StackOverflow' has been a lot useful, so I can also look up for the solution there. In worst case, I will try to look up for the solution on the internet as I usually do and tackle the problem myself. | |||
* '''How do you propose you will be keeping the community informed of your progress and any problems or questions you might have over the course of the project?''' | |||
I am planning on maintaining a wiki page every weekend regarding the project. As far daily progress is concerned, I will pass on the project links to my mentor on IRC whenever I'll find him active to get a quick review. I'll also create a thread on Mailing list to post regular updates regarding the project developments. | |||

When I was child, most of my learning was because the games(chinese checkers, scribble, puzzles, etc) I used to play my at my school. Since I am pretty good at geometry, my teacher being impressed with my skills once asked me to help her teach other students to draw different geometrical figures using basic tools like-compass, protractor, divider and set-squares. It made me feel really nice helping others with their learning. I owe my logical thinking to the games I used to play when I was a kid. | |||

I am pretty good at taking up challenging tasks(I introduced some cool features in Sugar that have been requested since a long time ;)) which seem difficult to others. After the completion of my project I would like to continue with my work on adding keyboard accessibility to Journal and download manager improvement in Browse. I am also planning to write an API (as suggested by Mr.Sam Parkinson) to extend keyboard accessibility to Sugar which would help kids to operate Sugar even without a mouse or some other pointing | I am pretty good at taking up challenging tasks(I introduced some cool features in Sugar that have been requested since a long time ;)) which seem difficult to others.
