# Introduction # Introduction
Below is a list of project ideas for [GSoC](https://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/homepage/google/gsoc2014) 2014. All these projects require familiarity with the Nimrod programming language, or at minimum, experience with similar programming languages such as C, C#, Java, Python, etc. It is absolutely essential that you become familiar with Nimrod ahead of time.

[Nimrod](http://nimrod-lang.org) is a statically typed programming language which compiles primarily to C. Areas of the project you may wish to work on include the [Nimrod compiler](#wiki-nimrod-compiler) which is itself written in Nimrod, Nimrod's [standard library](#wiki-standard-library) and/or the [tools and infrastructure](#wiki-tools--infrastructure) of Nimrod which includes the Nimrod build farm (Nimbuild) and the Nimrod package manager (babel).

The language is still pre-1.0 which means that the language specification is still not finished however despite this the project still tries to keep backwards compatibility.
We encourage you to join the #nimrod IRC channel on Freenode to discuss these projects with the community and our mentors. The Nimrod [Forum](http://forum.nimrod-lang.org) is also available. Because communication is a big part of open source development you are expected to get in touch with us before making your application, failure to do so will put your application at a great disadvantage.
