Hello.
I am Rajat Kumar, a junior year university student from India.
I have working experiences in languages like C,C++ and Python.
I am really really interested in working in D language. I want
to work in the project - Flatbuffer Suport or Protocol Buffer
Support.
It is now the time to write the proposal. I need some
suggestion for the same. What are the key points, do I need to
mention in the proposal?
thank you.
The main goal of the project is to bring FlatBuffers D support
into the upstream repository.
In contrast with Protocol Buffers version 2, both FlatBuffers and
Protocol Buffers version 3 have support for a couple of
programming languages and the adoption of new languages is
continuing. It will be great if at the end of GSOC2016, D will be
one of those languages.
I think that a good application should contain at least:
- FlatBuffers or Protocol Buffers. Focus just on one of them,
although Protocol Buffers will be a little too small of a project
(use it to get warm).
- identify the software components, eventually some design
ideas.
- testing of the implementation.
- a rough time plan.
- a couple of words about yourself, relevant experience,
eventually reference your relevant work.
Start with a rough proposal and we can discuss on that.
