Interest in Contributing to GCC and GSoC 2026

[Sundram Jha]

Hello GCC Team,

I hope this message finds you well.
My name is *Sundaram*, and I’m an undergraduate computer science student
with a strong interest in compiler design, optimisation techniques, and
low-level programming.

I’m familiar with *C and C++*, and I’ve been learning about compiler
internals, including lexical analysis, parsing, and code generation. I
would love to begin contributing to *GCC* and become part of your developer
community.

I’m also very interested in participating in *Google Summer of Code (GSoC)
2026* under your organisation, and I’d like to start contributing early to
better understand the workflow and codebase.

Could you please suggest any beginner-friendly issues or areas of the
codebase that are suitable for new contributors? I’m eager to start with
small contributions and gradually take on more complex tasks as I learn.

Thank you for your time and guidance. I look forward to hearing from you.

Best regards,
*Sundaram*
