# Introduction
Below is a list of project ideas for [GSoC](https://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/homepage/google/gsoc2015) 2015. These projects require familiarity with the Nim programming language so it is absolutely essential that you become familiar with Nim ahead of time.
[Nim](http://nim-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 [Nim compiler](#wiki-nim-compiler) which is itself written in Nim, Nim's [standard library](#wiki-standard-library) and/or the [tools and infrastructure](#wiki-tools--infrastructure) of Nim which includes the Nim build farm (Nimbuild) and the Nim package manager (nimble).
[Nim](http://nim-lang.org) is a statically typed programming language which compiles primarily to C and has an excellent performance/productivity ratio. Nim's design focuses on efficiency, expressiveness, elegance.
Areas of the project you may wish to work on include the [Nim compiler](#wiki-nim-compiler) which is itself written in Nim, Nim's [standard library](#wiki-standard-library) and/or the [tools and infrastructure](#wiki-tools--infrastructure) of Nim which includes the Nim build farm (Nimbuild) and the Nim package manager (nimble).
To get started you will need to clone the Nim repository and then subsequently bootstrap the compiler, instructions for doing this are located [here](https://github.com/Araq/Nim#compiling). You can then move onto the [tutorial](http://nim-lang.org/tut1.html) and read through the [other documentation](http://nim-lang.org/documentation.html) as well.
