QEMU participates in open source internship programs including Google Summer of Code (GSoC) and Outreachy. These full-time remote work opportunities allow talented new developers to get involved in our community. This post highlights what our interns achieved in 2018.

QEMU is once again participating in Google Summer of Code and Outreachy this year! These open source internship programs offer full-time remote work opportunities for talented new developers wishing to get involved in our community.

micro:bit emulation support is available from QEMU 4.0 onwards and can be used for low-level software testing and development. Unlike existing micro:bit simulators, QEMU performs full-system emulation and actually runs the same ARM code as the real hardware. This blog post explains what full-system emulation means and why QEMU is now a useful tool for developing micro:bit software.

QEMU (https://www.qemu.org/) emulates a large number of network cards, disk controllers, and other devices needed to simulate a virtual computer system, called the “guest”.

QEMU is participating in Google Summer of Code 2020 again this year! Google Summer of Code (GSoC) is an internship program that brings students into open source development. GSoC offers full-time remote work opportunities for talented new developers wishing to get involved in our community.
