The Google Summer of Code, often abbreviated to GSoC, is an international annual program in which Google awards stipends to contributors who successfully complete a free and open-source software coding project during the summer. As of 2022, the program is open to anyone aged 18 or over,[1] no longer just students and recent graduates. It was first held from May to August 2005.[2] Participants get paid to write software,[3] with the amount of their stipend depending on the purchasing power parity of the country where they are located.[4] Project ideas are listed by host organizations involved in open-source software development, though students can also propose their own project ideas.

The idea for the Summer of Code came directly from Google's founders, Sergey Brin and Larry Page.[2] From 2007 until 2009 Leslie Hawthorn, who has been involved in the project since 2006, was the program manager.[5] From 2010 until 2015, Carol Smith was the program manager.[6] In 2016, Stephanie Taylor took over management of the program.
