Interested in contributing towards FURY under Python Software Foundation in Google Summer Of Code 2026

Hello everyone I'm Ammar Sharif, a Master's student in Data Science, and I'm interested in contributing to Fury-GL with the goal of applying for GSoC 2026. My background is in Python and scientific computing — I work regularly with NumPy, Pandas, Matplotlib, Seaborn, and Scikit-learn, and my coursework involves building end-to-end ML systems. I'm comfortable reading and working within larger Python codebases. I've started exploring the Fury repo and I find the intersection of scientific visualization and Python genuinely exciting, especially given how relevant 3D visualization is becoming in data science and ML workflows. I would really appreciate any advice on: - Good first issues suitable for a newcomer - Which GSoC 2026 ideas the mentors are most enthusiastic about - Any areas where someone from a data science background could contribute meaningfully Thanks so much for building something this cool. Excited to get started

GSoC Ideas
by Arun Krishna K Feb. 22, 2026

Feb. 22, 2026

I am Arun, a CS student interested in contributing to your organization for GSoC 2026. I have been reviewing the project ideas page and am specifically interested in project 1, that is, Improving Fury Documentation Generation. I figured this project would be an good way for me to learn the ropes as it seems like a solid starting point. The project description mentions that it can be scaled for either 175 or 350 hours. Could you please provide more information on how the 350 hour version differs from the 175 hour one? I would appreciate any details regarding the expanded scope or additional requirements you have in mind for the larger version. I would like to start contributing with a PR. So, Is there anything specific you would recommend I begin with, or any particular area of the docs that needs the most attention right now? Thank you for your time and guidance. Regards, K Arun Krishna

GSoC 2026 - Introduction and Interest in Project 2
by Mansi Maanu Feb. 21, 2026

Feb. 21, 2026

Subject: GSoC 2026 - Introduction and Interest in Project 2 Hi FURY team, My name is Mansi and I'm a Master's student in Information Systems at Northeastern University (Seattle) with 3+ years of experience in software development, primarily building full-stack applications and automation tools in Python. You can find my work on GitHub ( https://github.com/MansiSingh17) and my portfolio at https://mansisingh.vercel.app/. I found FURY through the Python GSoC page and I'm interested in contributing to Project 2 (Improving FURY Website and Demonstrations). My background in web development and documentation systems feels like a natural fit for this project, and I see a lot of potential to make FURY's demos more accessible for new users. I've already cloned the repo, switched to the v2 branch, and started going through the tutorials. I'm planning to make my first contribution soon and am currently looking at issue #940 (DOC warnings) as a starting point. I also noticed the Discord invite link on the GSoC wiki page seems to have expired. Could someone share an updated link? A couple of questions to get started: - Is there a particular area of the website the team would like to prioritize? - Are there demos that mentors feel are most in need of improvement? Thank you and looking forward to being part of the community! Mansi
