Hi Rupesh!

Thanks for reaching out so early for next year's GSoC. The best thing you can do to get started on the road to being a GSoC student in 2019 is to start working through the steps outlined at the top of this post. Learning what Plone is, how to use it as an end-user, how it works, and how to develop a website using Plone is always a great first step. The linked list of GSoC ideas is of course from this year's round of work, so many of the topics will change, but they can give you a solid idea of the types of work we like to do during GSoC.

Once again, thanks for reaching out, and welcome to the Plone community!

@Rotonen makes a great point, @Rupeshiya. You can also take a look at our gatsby integration work which was completed as a part of this year's GSoC. But in either case, you'll want to download Plone itself, set up a site with it, and use it for a bit to ensure that you understand what it is and how it works. You can do that without needing Python skills. A good starting point is to use docker to set up a local Plone instance. That way you can run it on your own machine and play with it without too much work.
