GSoC @ Arduino, JerryScript for Portenta 🤩

[noob-master147]

Chears to GSOC and Arduino Community

Hey developers out there, my name is Divyansh Khandelwal. I'm 20 years and a sophomore at Vellore Institute of Technology. Getting to see Arduino as a GSOC organization was like a dream come true for me.

Something About Me

I got hands-on experience with Arduino about 20 months back and since then my thirst for learning and building projects has increased. I am an Electronics and IoT enthusiast and a backend developer in node.js. Till now I have built around 4 Industrial IoT projects and 2 backend projects.
More about what I do is here

Project Proposal

I would wish to work on contributing JerryScript support to Portenta and building code support for the developers. I would also like to contribute towards the improvement of the documentation of Arduino and jerryscript. I also plan towards contributing to the project hub with a few of the hardware projects that I have built.

@alranel I hope you are best in health seeing the worsening situation in Italy due to COVID-19.
@alranel since portenta isn't really available how can I contribute as of now to the community?
What I have in mind is adding a few Examples in the existing libraries and few in Arduino. What else can I do?
