Welcome to the Joomla! Google Summer of Code (GSoC) 2012 project ideas page. As we move forward with the 2012 version of the Joomla! GSoC, we will use this page to develop possible project ideas.

Ideas[edit]

Social Package[edit]

Over the last several years, social media has become a dominant force in online media. Based on the number of extensions interacting with various social media APIs, it would be logical to build a Social package for the Joomla! Platform that provides a common and simplified interface to post and retrieve data from various social media networks.

Mentor: Michael Babker
Skills: Joomla Platform, familiarity with social media APIs (Facebook, Twitter, Google+, etc.), OAuth
Difficulty: Medium to Hard
