| title: Summer of Nix 2022 Announcement! | ||
| date: 2022-04-04 | ||
| --- | ||
|
|
||
| Summer of Nix 2022 will happen **from July 18th to September 30th**! | ||
|
|
||
| [Applications are open here from now until May 15th!](https://cryptpad.fr/form/#/2/form/view/HyAQLTXDtHy0JNGvRIwWXa6Swmxb31LuWsOoPRcmD-8/). | ||
|
|
||
| Following the excitement of Summer of Nix 2021 (more in [last year’s | ||
| report](https://summer.nixos.org/assets/report-2021.pdf), I am happy to | ||
| announce that the European Commission, NLNet and the NixOS Foundation have | ||
| granted enough budget to organize another community event this year. After some | ||
| brainstorming sessions I am excited to share how we (an organization committee | ||
| of ~8 people now) would like to organize this event. | ||
|
|
||
| Summer of Nix is **a paid summer program** where you can **learn, meet, and | ||
| work** with the Nix community. It targets experienced Nixers and Nix newcomers | ||
| alike to come together and work on a range of different topics. At the same | ||
| time, there will be talks about Nix and presentations by Nix-using companies | ||
| with the goal of fostering a strong sense of community and pushing the | ||
| ecosystem forward together. | ||
|
|
||
| What’s new this year is that we offer … | ||
|
|
||
| - a **communication stream** to write quality documentation, deployment | ||
| stories, tutorials, and produce video content and podcast episodes; | ||
| - an **ecosystem stream** to work directly on Nix tooling that improves the | ||
| overall packaging and package user experience; | ||
| - a **packaging stream** to package new free and open source software either | ||
| within nixpkgs or as independent flakes. | ||
|
|
||
| All streams focus on improving Nix support for the **free and open source | ||
| (FOSS) ecosystem** from different angles, as last year with emphasis on the | ||
| packages sponsored by the European Commission via the NGI initiative and | ||
| NLNet. | ||
|
|
||
| You can participate in Summer of Nix in several ways: | ||
|
|
||
| - **As a participant** you will work full time on various projects together | ||
| with other participants within the 3 work streams for about 8 weeks (with | ||
| some flexibility, e.g. to take vacation). This is the main role in Summer of | ||
| Nix and great for those who work in a team to share and improve their Nix | ||
| skills, meet nice people while contributing to the community. | ||
| - **As a team coordinator** you will lead a small team, arrange communication | ||
| and mentoring, and guide technical discussions and decisions. You will also | ||
| be involved in the overall organization of the program with other | ||
| coordinators. Technical work in this role includes reviewing PRs and | ||
| answering technical questions. Hours can vary, but on average the time | ||
| commitment is about 12 hours a week. Experienced Nix tinkerers with a social | ||
| knack are encouraged to apply for this role. If you’re interested in Nix and | ||
| also enjoy team organization, this role is for you! | ||
| - **As a tech wiz** you will pair program with participants, answer their | ||
| questions, review their PRs, and show them how to get along with Nix. This | ||
| is a great way to be involved if you are an experienced Nixer and enjoy | ||
| helping others in a flexible way. | ||
| - **As a project lead** you offer a project within the three work streams. You | ||
| would work together with participants on this project, and provide them with | ||
| guidance and technical expertise. This is great for anyone who is looking | ||
| for support on their own Nix project. If you have an idea, please apply, but | ||
| understand that projects have to fall within the three work streams and we | ||
| will need to evaluate whether they can fit within the scope of the European | ||
| Commission’s grant. | ||
|
|
||
| The compensation depends a bit on each role but will roughly be oriented on | ||
| Google’s Summer of Code stipend for the participant roles. | ||
|
|
||
| Please write to summer@nixos.org if you have questions. In addition to this, we | ||
| will also have **a separate sponsor track** for companies who want to connect | ||
| with the community in this program this year. But more about this later… | ||
