I am curious kid on the web, trying to learn more about life and other things. I enjoy building things and my medium of expression is mostly code. I have been dabbling with OpenEdx recently. I love to talk about distributed system, I have taken up learning Rust recently and been writing Python, Golang and JavaScript for a while.

This year was full of surprises, mostly pleasant ones; the year was filled with friendships and travels. Towards the end of last year, Anirudha and I started working on Rust and tried picking it up. He started a project called Feluda, and I started c...

This summer has been really amazing, I learnt a lot and worked crazy hours it has been a crazy yet amazing ride. I am not going to stop working on open source projects and with Pagure it is something really close to my heart.
There are a few things left but I can conclude that I am able to achieve what I wanted to at the beginning of this program , but there is never a feeling of satisfaction it is just like you want to achieve the best possible and most beautiful solution.
Pagure has CI integration which was one of my major goals to achieve and with the coming release it will be out and will be usable to people. This gives me immense pleasure to say that the foundation of CI was laid by me although Pingou kind of wrote a lot after that but that helped me to learn the depth of thinking one needs to have when you are working on a feature like this. 
I also worked on Private Repo feature which took more time than expected and it was pretty challenging to achieve , this feature is in feature branch and it may get merged after it is checked in the staging first. 
It was so challenging that I got stuck on a data fetching problem from the database , we use Sqlalchemy as ORM in Pagure. I went through a lot of ups and downs at times I was about to give up but then I get some small part of it and Pingou has been so amazing mentor he never spoon fed me instead he asked the right question the moment he ask something the idea bulb use to glow.
I still remember struggling with Xapian and Whoosh. This was again a very big task and still is , it requires a lot of time to optimize it to a level where it doesn’t slow the site. I gave a lot of time on it but since I few other goals and various issue to solve so I eventually moved on to those just to come back.
Pagure pages is one of the last goals that I worked on recently and there are discussion pending over it.
At a glance I was able to achieve a lot of the big goals on my proposal and still work has to be done, and I will continue to work on achieving various other goals. Few links that I want to share :
Commits made to the master branch
Commits on private-repo branch on pagure
Pull-request for static page hosting
This kinds of makes me feel happy that I have around 102 commits on the master branch now and I believing I will be working a lot more on Pagure to bring a lot of cool and useful feature to it. In case you have any suggestion feel free to file issues on Pagure.
To be really frank I am not at all sad that GSoC is getting because I have received so much love and inspiration from Fedora Community that contributing to projects has actually become my daily routine the day I don’t commit code, review patches or comment on issues I start feeling something is missing .
And some of my fellow GSoCers said That’s all folks! 
Happy Hacking!
