Seeking Opinion on an archeticture diagram

[mahmoudnasser1561]

Hi @pradeeban,

I truly appreciate your feedback on my first GSoC proposal, and I remain fully committed to it. Given the competitive nature of the program, I’ve been considering submitting a second proposal to increase my chances of selection.

I’d love to get your opinion on this approach to solving the problem. Do you see anything missing ?
or do you have any refinements, suggestions ?

Additionally, do you think this provides a solid foundation to build upon?

Thank you!

Hi @mahmoudnasser1561,
Thanks for your interest. Looks interesting to me. I like your architecture diagram.

Can you draft a proposal and send it to the mentors in a single email (also, cc me)? That way, we can discuss the proposal better before you submit it to the GSoC Portal?

In your draft proposal, please make sure to highlight all your contributions to other Alaska projects too (with links) - as that will help us evaluate your proposal better.

Also, please include and highlight your related experience as well in your proposal.

@mahmoudnasser1561 also, pay attention to the points made in https://github.com/bio-block/healthy/discussions/5

Well, I don't have blockchain projects yet, but I have some good knowledge already. The coding period is quite two months away, which I believe is a good time interval to thoroughly study and practice with blockchain technologies.

I'm currently getting my hands on the basics of it. If I were to create some projects/demos with basic features to include in my proposal right now and continue developing my skills afterwards, would that be a valid approach?

what do you think @pradeeban ?

Sounds good to me. By the way, if you are applying to multiple (i.e., 2 or 3) projects, they don't have to be for the same organization. You could apply to different organizations too. GSoC rules allow that. I am saying that without wearing my org admin hat. :) Of course, as the org admin, I want all the proposals to come to Alaska so we will have the best ones to pick from. :D

[mahmoudnasser1561]

Yes, I understand I can apply to different organizations, I found myself in Alaska's projects, engaging community and good people :)

I'm quite confident about my primary proposal, but exploring blockchain has also sparked my curiosity as well so I am feeding my curiosity and also do some backup to ensure my seat in the GSoC program this year :D

Thank you for being so approachable and providing this guidance ❤️

Hello Mahmoud! We look forward to looking at your final submission to the bio-block project. Please refer to additional comments that @pradeeban made regarding additional questions to consider in your final submission.

Hi @Chali-healthy, @pradeeban,

I’ve just submitted my Bio-Block proposal to the GSoC portal. If anything seems unclear or if you need any additional information, please feel free to reach out.

For transparency, I wanted to let you know that I’ve ranked this proposal as [2], as I’ve also submitted another proposal that I’ve given higher priority. That said, I truly enjoyed exploring both projects and found the research process incredibly valuable.

If both proposals were to be selected, my intention would be to proceed with my first proposal which is ranked as [1].

I appreciate your guidance and look forward to your feedback!

[Chali-healthy]

Thanks much Mahmoud.

@mahmoudnasser1561 thanks for also listing the priorities. Whenever we can, we always respect the ordering.
