Part of the Journey is the end unless its Open Source!
- 23 August 2020
Hello and welcome to my final weekly check-in. Today officially marks the end of the coding period for GSoC 2020. I enjoyed every bit of it. This was a life-changing experience for me and now I observe and interpret everything from a different perspective altogether. I have grown into a better developer and a person since GSoC. I would like to thank all my mentors and especially Serge for his immense support and mentorship. I would love to contribute to fury even after GSoC is over but unfortunately my semester break is over so I won’t be as active as I was during the summer.
Wrecking Ball Simulation, Scrollbars Update, Physics Tutorials.
- 16 August 2020
Hello and welcome to my 12th weekly check-in. In this blog I will be discussing my progress with the wrecking ball simulation and my scrollbar separation work. Apart from this I have also finalized the physics simulation tutorials and have created a Pull Request to finally get it merged with the official repository. The official repository of my sub-org can be found here.
Chain Simulation, Scrollbar Refactor, Tutorial Update.
- 09 August 2020
Hello and welcome to my 11th weekly check-in. In this blog I will be discussing my progress with multiple topics related to physics and ui components. I was actively working on a couple of things, specifically Joint simulations in pyBullet and scrollbar UI component. I also took up the responsibility to complete an incomplete Pull Request which was pending for quite a while. The official repository of my sub-org can be found here.
Single Actor, Physics, Scrollbars.

Hello and welcome to my 10th weekly check-in. Second evaluation ended this week and now we move on to our 3rd and final coding period. In today’s check-in I will be sharing my progress with the single actor physics simulation that I facing some issues with and I will also be discussing my future plans regarding UI components. The official repository of my sub-org, FURY can always be found here.

ComboBox2D, TextBlock2D, Clipping Overflow.
- 19 July 2020
Hello and welcome to my 8th weekly check-in. I will be sharing my progress with ComboBox2D and TextBlock2D UI components. After solving TextBlock2D sizing issue, I was finally able to complete the implementation of combo box. I also faced some problems while refactoring TextBlock2D. The official repository of my sub-org, FURY can always be found here.
Orientation, Sizing, Tab UI.

Hello and welcome to my 7th weekly check-in. I will be sharing my progress with single actor physics simulation and TextBlock2D sizing issue which was pending for quite a while now. I will also be sharing my thoughts regarding the TAB UI component. The official repository of my sub-org, FURY can always be found here.
Translation, Reposition, Rotation.
- 05 July 2020
Hello and welcome to my 6th weekly check-in. The first evaluation period officially ends and I am very excited to move on to the second coding period. I will be sharing my progress with handling specific object’s properties among various multiple objects rendered by a single actor. I am mainly focusing on making it easier to translate, rotate and reposition a particular object, so that I can use them to render physics simulations more efficiently. The official repository of my sub-org, FURY can always be found here.
May the Force be with you!!

Hello and welcome to my second weekly check-in, I will be sharing my progress for the first week of coding.
Welcome to my GSoC Blog!!!
- 30 May 2020
Hello Everyone, this is Soham Biswas currently in 2nd year pursuing my Bachelor’s(B.Tech) degree in Computer Science & Engineering from Institute of Engineering & Management, Kolkata. I have been selected for GSoC’ 20 at sub-org FURY under the umbrella organization of Python Software Foundation. I will be working on building sci-fi-like 2D and 3D interfaces and provide physics engine integration under project titled “Create new UI widgets & Physics Engine Integration”.
