On December 2021, Digital Campus lead a one week hackathon around lingua libre. Their instruction was to offer a practical interface allowing to listen to existing recordings and to put a tag on them. To facilitate the exercise, they will not link it to lingua libre, just create a file in which the reviewed recordings and their tags are stored.
The proof of concept UI, coded in 4 days, has not been pushed further.

Google Summer of Code 2024
editThese 2 projects designs and applications were initiated by Yug, with User:Poslovitch and Ishan Saini as technical co-mentors. Project application workload was about 4~6 workdays over a month mostly to understand the scope, how to proceed, where, and to write down the project description. Applicants reviews (~8 pers.), communication, issues assignments, assessment took about 6 workdays over 3 weeks. The coding period required 1.5 workdays a week from Yugn and 2~4h/week for technical mentors. Kabir worked earlier in May & June, while Pushkar worked as encouraged in July & August. Interns are funded by Google, Yug was mostly mentoring within the scope of his Open Science job funded by MESR France and URFIST Occitanie ; Ishan and Poslovitch were mentoring as volunteers, explaning the different workloads taken.

In the field of Language diversity, Wikimedia Foundation and Wikimedia France have supported LinguaLibre.org, a single page VueJS application to rapidly record vocabularies of the world. Over 240 languages and 1.2 millions words have been audio recorded into Wikimedia sites through this open project. Current back end (wikibase, blazegraph) while interesting have shown limitations, mostly limited query speed, no API, and duplication of data. A revamp have been engaged but requires further full stack work to be expanded into a maintainable code base, pushed into production, upgraded into an elegant service for native speakers.
- Tech stack: VueJS, Django (Python), NodeJS
- Size: 350 hours
- Difficulty: Intermediate
- Mentor(s): Yug, Poslovitch

Lingua Libre's mission has been extended to Sign Languages in 2019. Both a click-and-translate Firefox extension and a video recording studio have been developed. Both system UI exist in 35+ languages allowing the global documentation and learning of various sign languages. As Manisfest v2.0 extensions are being phased out, the project is under threat. A full revamp into manifest v3.0 and a modern extension structure would allow the project to be compatible with all web navigators. This project must navigate updated in browser web extension security constrains and new web extension API.
- Tech stack: JS, NodeJS, potentially modern frameworks (Vue, React, Svelte)
- Size: 175 hours
- Difficulty: Intermediate
- Mentor(s): Yug, Ishan Saini
- Intern: Kabir T361550
