We are looking for developers who would like to work on the projects listed above (or that come up with their own GSoC projects).

Hey,
I am Shaddy Garg, a sophomore at IIT Roorkee. I have experience in developing web applications using the python frameworks, Django and DjangoRestFramework and javascript frameworks, Angular and React. I find your project interesting and would like to participate in GSoC with this project. How do I proceed further?
Regards.

Did you look into the ideas that I outlined above? Which one would be interesting for you? DRF is a good basis. Do you have experience with ReactJS? If so the browsable API could be interesting for you.

Yes, I had a look into the ideas and the project with browsable api seems interesting. How should I proceed further?

You could start to write down what kind of functionality you could imagine to implement. Looking at Django Rest Framework might be a good starting point for that.

Then you could look into writing a small PoC prototype (maybe in React) to show some basic interaction with the REST API.

Those two things would be a good base for a GSoC proposal.

My 20 cents: https://github.com/plone/plone.restapi/pull/669/files

Hope someone can continue this work, since I have other priorities now.

@tisto. Is plone.restapi a part of gsoc 2019 ?

If there is a student who is willing to work on this and submits a promising proposal then yes.

@tisto. I have been reading the documentation and found it really interesting. Can you please tell me how to proceed further ?
