Description

@namiroues

In reference to @orbeckst 's comment in this PR comment it was suggested to automate the listing of past Google Summer of Code (GSoC) projects dating back to 2016.

Currently, this content is added manually and risks becoming outdated. A better long-term approach would be:

  • Add a front-matter tag (e.g., category: gsoc) to all GSoC-related blog posts or project write-ups.
  • Implement a Liquid loop in Jekyll that dynamically collects and displays all posts with that tag.
  • Optionally, set up a pre-configured Algolia search or filtered link as a fallback or supplement.

This would reduce maintenance, ensure up-to-date GSoC listings, and keep the page fresh without needing manual edits after each GSoC cycle.

Note: Consider including the project year, title, and contributor in a structured list or card format for readability.
