Hey everyone, happy to say that Fortran-Lang is applying for Google Summer of Code 2026 (GSoC ‘26). The deadline for application is 3rd February, 18:00 UTC.
I request any interested mentors to please message here. Let’s put the application together. The first draft of project ideas is posted at GSoC 2026 Project ideas · fortran-lang/webpage Wiki · GitHub !
I’ve added prospective mentors from LFortran, and will be adding others at GSoC 2026 Mentors · fortran-lang/webpage Wiki · GitHub !
Thanks @Pranavchiku! If you are willing to mentor, please reply below. We have about 5 for LFortran, but it would be good to get a few more for other Fortran-lang projects also.
Hey all, we’ve applied for GSoC 2026, looking forward to exciting summer!
Excellent, thank you Pranav!
Hey Fortran community I am interested to participate in Fortran GSoC 2026 if I can make the time
Wishing to see results, good luck on GSoC 2026 :3
Hey all, we got accepted for GSoC 2026. 
Awesome, thank you @Pranavchiku !
Hello everyone!
I’m Anany Rai,though I go by ‘singu’ almost everywhere online. I’m a sophomore pursuing a B.S. in Economics at IIT Kanpur, India, and I’m incredibly excited to join the Fortran-lang community for GSoC 2026.
My main area of interest is in Systems Programming and Competitive Programming, a little in web3 (defi and bitcoin dev) and Graphics programming. I have Rust as my language of choice for nearly everything for now.. I am familiar with low-level memory management, FFI, and performance optimization. Although I am a newcomer to the Fortran world, I have been reading up on memory handling, compiler architecture and WebAssembly for the past year.
Presently, I am a Secretary at Programming Club , IIT Kanpur. I have organized camps,sessions on Graphics Programming (ray tracing and wgpu) and Web3/Blockchain systems. I have also experimented with writing RAG/GraphRAG pipelines.
I came across Fortran at the same time as I started learning about Rust, Zig, and Haskell. This was because of ThePrimeagen’s series on performance languages. I find it intriguing that the oldest high level language still maintains a performance advantage in scientific computing because of its strict aliasing and array first design.
I am currently trying to familiarize myself with the LFortran and fpm codebases. I plan to submit my first patch soon. I look forward to meeting the community and contributing to the ecosystem!
Hi everyone,
I’m Samarth Hannure. I’m interested in contributing to fpm for GSoC 2026.
I’ve started working on documentation cleanup issues and exploring the packaging/docs structure.
Looking forward to contributing and learning from the community.
Hey everyone, Saif this side. Last year contributed to The JPF Team (GSoC 2025). Looking forward to contributing to vscode support for fortran. Familiar with programming languages like java, ts, python. New to fortran. Thanks. Great community.
