:tada: Exciting News: Mogan STEM Officially Selected for GSoC 2026!

We are thrilled to announce that Mogan STEM has been officially accepted as a mentor organization for Google Summer of Code (GSoC) 2026! This is a fantastic opportunity for new open-source contributors to get involved and work with us on advancing the future of scientific editing.

We have prepared two exciting project ideas for potential GSoC contributors this year. You can find the detailed descriptions for both projects here:

:computer: How to Apply as a Student

We are looking for motivated students to join us. To be considered for a GSoC position with Mogan STEM, you must follow these steps:

  1. Join Our Community: The first step is to join our Discord server and navigate to the dedicated GSoC channel.

  2. Connect with a Mentor: Once you’re on Discord, please directly message me, Jack Yansong Li. Let me know you’re interested in GSoC.

  3. Complete the Prerequisite Tasks: I will provide you with two small, concrete tasks related to the project you’re interested in. Successfully completing these two tasks and having the corresponding Pull Requests (PRs) merged is a mandatory requirement for us to consider your formal GSoC application. This helps us ensure all candidates have the necessary foundational skills.

:spiral_calendar: Bi-weekly Developer & User Salon

To support our community and help everyone get more familiar with Mogan STEM, we are launching a recurring online salon.

We plan to hold this online salon every two weeks to share experiences in using and developing Mogan STEM. The first session will be held on:

  • :date: Date: Sunday, March 2nd, 2025
  • :alarm_clock: Time: 9:00 PM (Beijing Time)

:dart: Salon Goals

  • Mogan STEM New Features: Learn about the new features and improvements in each version.
  • The Future of Mogan/TeXmacs: Discuss the future direction and application prospects of the software.
  • Share Your Knowledge and Experience: We encourage users to share their tips, workflows, and practical use cases.

:computer: Join the First Salon on Zoom

Yansong Li is inviting you to a scheduled Zoom meeting.

We look forward to seeing you on Discord and at our first salon! Let’s build the future of STEM editing together.

Hi Jack!
Thank you for sharing these details on GSoC. I tried joining the above discord channel but I am getting this (see image)

I think its because there are no channels in the server that give view access to someone with no roles. Can you please check on this ?

Again, Thanks!
