== Monal ==
=== Your own ideas ===
''Website:'' https://monal-im.org/<br/>
''Source Code:'' https://github.com/monal-im/monal<br/>
''OSI-License:'' 2-Clause BSD: https://github.com/monal-im/Monal/blob/develop/LICENSE<br/>
''Description:'' Monal is a modern iOS and MacOS XMPP chat client<br/>
''Project Contact:'' [[User:TMolitor|tmolitor]]<br/>
''Relevant readings:'' XMPP + SwiftUI + Swift (+ ObjC)<br/>
''Teaser Tasks:'' [https://github.com/monal-im/Monal/labels/%F0%9F%8E%83%20GSOC%20Teaser Issues tagged "GSOC Teaser"]<br/>
''Chat:'' [xmpp:monal@chat.yax.im?join monal@chat.yax.im] or [https://yaxim.org/chat/#monal@chat.yax.im Webchat] or via 1:1 chat with [xmpp:thilo.molitor@juforum.de tmolitor]
 
=== Modern Onboarding ===
 
''Brief explanation:'' When new unexperienced (XMPP) users start Monal for the first time, they should be taken by the hand and introduced to XMPP (decentralized, login vs. registration) as well as the most important privacy settings / privacy policy. The resulting introduction should be implemented using SwiftUI and should replace / incorporate the existing login/register UI.
 
''Relevant readings:'' SwiftUI + Swift (+ ObjC)
 
''Project size:'' 90h
 
''Difficulty:'' Easy
 
''Deliverables / Expected Results:''
 
* Short and understandable introduction to XMPP / Monal
* Configuration and explanation of the most important privacy settings
 
=== Media Gallery ===
 
''Brief explanation:'' When tapping onto an image in the chat, a SwiftUI based image viewer appears, showing that image in full screen. Enhange that SwiftUI based media viewer to support videos. Allow to swipe through all received/sent media (images and videos). Show a SwiftUI based gallery of all received media when tapping a button in the contact details, leading to this image/video viewer when tapping onto a gallery item.
 
''Relevant readings:'' SwiftUI + Swift (+ ObjC)
 
''Project size:'' 90h
 
''Difficulty:'' Easy
 
''Deliverables / Expected Results:''
 
* Support swiping through media
* Support for common video formats
* Media gallery
 
=== MDM support ===
 
''Brief explanation:'' Add support for "managed configuration" allowing to automatically configure Monal in school or business environments.
 
''Relevant readings:'' [https://github.com/monal-im/Monal/issues/164#issuecomment-778239069 Links in Monal Issue comment] + ObjC / Swift
 
''Project size:'' 175h
 
''Difficulty:'' Easy
 
''Deliverables / Expected Results:''
 
* Configuration of most settings in Monal through MDM (privacy settings, accounts etc.)
* Allow locking of these settings via MDM to prevent users from changing them
* Auto-Create of account in Monal via MDM
 
=== SiriKit support ===
 
''Brief explanation:'' Implement SiriKit interactions for `write a message`, `read a message`, `respond to a message`, `read contact details (last online time, status message etc.)`, `open chat of contact` and possibly `add contact`.
 
''Relevant readings:'' [https://github.com/monal-im/Monal/issues/938 Links in Monal Issue] + ObjC / Swift
 
''Project size:'' 350h
 
''Difficulty:'' Medium
 
''Deliverables / Expected Results:'' Monal can be handled hands-free and actively used to do a conversation while driving a car.
 
=== Your own idea ===
 
You feel confident to propose your own well-stated idea? Please go ahead and reach out to us using one of the contact addresses listed above (preferable via email).

== Prav.app ==
''Website:'' https://prav.app<br/>
''Source Code:'' https://codeberg.org/prav/<br/>
''OSI-License:'' Apache 2.0 https://codeberg.org/prav/pravserver/src/branch/master/LICENSE<br/>
''Description:'' Easy XMPP onboarding with SMS OTP sign up and contact discovery<br/>
''Project Contact:'' email: prav at fsci.in<br/>
''Relevant readings:'' XMPP + readings under each idea<br/>
''Teaser Tasks:'' https://codeberg.org/prav/pravserver/issues?labels=182972 and https://codeberg.org/prav/IssueTracker/issues?labels=182981<br/>
''Chat:'' https://xmpp.link/#prav-devel@chat.disroot.org?join<br/>
 
=== Standards compliant SMS OTP based authentication ===
 
''Brief explanation:''
 
Phone number + SMS OTP based authentication is a very popular method of using internet services in many parts of the world, popularized by services like WhatsApp. This approach is followed by Quicksy and Prav (a Quicksy fork). But presently, this is being done in a custom approach which is specific to QuicksyServer+Quicksy client application. We need to enable users to sign up / login to XMPP with SMS authentication in a standards compliant way.
 
[Prav](prav.app) is presently limited to Android because it relies on this custom implementation (in the rebranded version of Quicksy). If we implement a standards compliant way of doing this we will be able to allow any XMPP client to sign up to prav.app. This will allow Prav to be used from iOS and other platforms.

''Project size:'' 350h
 
''Difficulty:'' Medium
 
''Deliverables / Expected Results:'' Implement XEP 0388 in Quicksy server (for SMS OTP second factor) and complete its implementation in ejabberd allowing any XMPP client to sign up to prav.app service.
