Some new ways to discuss BeeWare
Today, the BeeWare project is making 2 changes to the way we organize our community.
Firstly, we're going to move our real-time chat community from Gitter to Discord.

We have a contractor for our Android contract!

BeeWare Project Awarded a PSF Education Grant
The BeeWare Project wants to make it possible for all Python developers to write native apps for desktop and mobile platforms.

2018 Google Summer of Code - VOC Optimization
Google Summer of Code is coming to an end. I've spent the summer working on optimizing the VOC compiler, and I’m super excited to share the results.
2018 Google Summer of Code - Implement asyncio support in VOC
In the blink of an eye, Google Summer of Code (GSoC) 2018 has come to an end. During the three months long coding period, I have contributed several patches in VOC repository of BeeWare, all working towards the ultimate end goal of running asyncio module in VOC. In this blog post (which is my first actual blog post by the way 😄), I will document what I have done so far, why I couldn't make it to the end goal (yea, unfortunately I couldn't get asyncio to work at the end of GSoC 2018), and what's left that needs to be done in order to achieve the end goal (or at least make part of asyncio work).
