Hello everyone,
I am joining GSoC as a mentor for the first time this year and would like to introduce myself.
I would like to echo the sentiments of Oliver and say congratulations and welcome to all new OpenWISP students! I believe participation will be enriching both for yourselves as well as the project. For those who did not get into a slot this year, stay positive and stay on the lookout for ways to create new opportunities to participate in open source and OpenWISP.
My name is Nick (nickberry17), I am a software developer at an Australian company that builds mobile broadband modem routers. I first discovered OpenWISP around 2018 and my company began using it in a product in 2020. My company has sponsored development of some features for OpenWISP and has also agreed to allow me to contribute time to the project for GSoC.
I am glad to be taking part in GSoC 2021 as a mentor in the OpenWISP Monitoring OpenWrt package project, and the UI/navigation project.
All the best for the Summer of Code!
Nick
