Let's take a tour of what every file in this hierarchy means:

• For every year, we provided an updated list of ideas that should inspire you decide what you'd like to work on during summer, the ideas.md file. You can choose from there or you can come up with your own idea; nevertheless, get involved with the community and debate on your project.

• The README.md inside the yearly directory contains information specific to the year we are participating in GSoC: general code of conduct, the proposal template and what is expected of you before being accepted as a contributor.

• Now, onto the work-product directory: this is the place where we document what our contributors have worked on during the summer, their progress and more. It's also where you will post your work (if you are going to be accepted as a contributor) and it will be what your mentor will revise before giving their final feedback.

• The main README.md is what you are reading now: fun stuff!

• The last piece of the puzzle is the work-product-template.md file. It contains the skeleton that accepted contributors use for their final submission.

First and foremost, read the README.md file for the year you are applying in. Follow the steps documented there as closly as possible: you (literally) get extra points.

Inspect ideas.md. Get involved with the community regarding your project idea!

Take a glance at the work-product directory: know what to expect after the summer ends, what previous mentees had to do and their involvement with Unikraft.

Write your proposal, you'll find the template linked in the README.md for the year you are applying in.

Submit your proposal and good luck!
