Dart Project Announces Participation in Google Summer of Code 2026
The Dart project has officially announced its participation as a mentoring organization in the Google Summer of Code (GSoC) 2026 program. This marks the seventh time the Dart team will guide student developers through open-source software development projects. GSoC, sponsored by Google, connects students globally with mentoring organizations for intensive 12-week programming projects during the summer. Interested students are encouraged to review the curated list of project ideas on the Dart GitHub repository to align their skills with available opportunities. Formal applications must be submitted by the deadline of March 31st, 2026. The Dart team advises applicants to submit early drafts for feedback to improve their chances, noting that mentor capacity is limited and only a small number of applications will be accepted. Prospective contributors are also suggested to explore other mentoring organizations within the GSoC ecosystem. For specific inquiries regarding Dart's involvement, a dedicated mailing list is available. This initiative continues Dart's long-standing commitment to fostering new talent in the open-source community, leveraging Google's broader program which has supported over 22,000 contributors in the past two decades.
