GSoC 2026 Interest - Java/Spring Backend Contributor

Hello OpenELIS community,

My name is Hritik Raj, and I’m a student developer preparing for GSoC 2026. I have experience with Java and Spring Boot, and the OpenELIS backend looks like a great fit. I’ve seen many past GSoC projects were for the frontend. Can you tell me if you anticipate having any backend-focused projects (working on the Java/Spring parts) for 2026?

Thank you!
Hritik Raj
