What this tool is, and what it isn't

Built as a personal project to track GSSoC 2026 contributions. Read this before using it so you know exactly what data is accessed and how.

This tool is NOT affiliated with, endorsed by, or associated with GirlScript Summer of Code, GirlScript Foundation, or any of their official partners. GSSoC and GirlScript are trademarks of their respective owners.

What this tool does

GSSoC PR Tracker is a personal analytics dashboard built by a GSSoC 2026 participant to track contribution points in a way the official leaderboard doesn't.

When you enter a GitHub username, the tool:

  • Fetches your public pull requests from the GitHub API
  • Reads the labels attached to each PR (gssoc:approved, level:*, quality:*, type:*, etc.)
  • Calculates a point score based on those labels using the GSSoC 2026 scoring formula
  • Displays analytics: points over time, label distribution, difficulty breakdown

Everything is computed client-side at request time. No data is stored, cached, or sold.

Key difference from the official tracker

The official GSSoC leaderboard only counts PRs merged into repos that are officially registered with GSSoC. This tool does not have that restriction.

This tracker reads all public PRs on your GitHub profile that carry GSSoC labels — regardless of whether the repo is officially listed in the GSSoC programme. That means your score here may be higher than on the official leaderboard, because it includes contributions to repos that GSSoC hasn't approved.

Use this tool to understand your own activity and label patterns. For official standings, always refer to the GSSoC leaderboard.

Data & privacy

We do not collect, store, or share any personal information.

  • No accounts, no sign-up, no cookies beyond what Next.js sets by default
  • Your GitHub username is only used to query the public GitHub API
  • PR data is fetched live and not persisted on any server we control
  • No analytics, no tracking pixels, no third-party scripts that profile you

The only external API called is the GitHub REST API (api.github.com), which is subject to GitHub's own terms and rate limits.

Why this was built

The official GSSoC tracker is limited to repos registered in the programme. As a participant, I wanted a way to see all my labelled PRs, track points over time, and understand how the scoring formula works across everything I contributed to.

I built this for myself, found it useful, and made it public so other participants could use it too. It is a side project — not an official tool.

Source code is open on GitHub. Issues and PRs welcome.
