Joshkato24 added a comment to T387267: Outreachy 30: Bulk OCR for Wikisource.

My name is Joshua Kato, a PHP/JavaScript developer from Uganda applying for GSoC 2026. I came across the Bulk OCR Improvements project, and I'm very excited about it. Improving access to digitised books on Wikisource is meaningful work that directly helps knowledge sharing globally.
I have solid experience with PHP (Laravel), JavaScript, HTML, CSS , Vue js and OOP. I'm comfortable working with APIs and understand how to build and test backend features. I've already created a Phabricator account, joined the Wikimedia Zulip community and subscribed to the Google-Summer-of-Code (2026) channel.
I noticed the great foundation from the Outreachy work done previously. I'd love to build on that for GSoC 2026.
Could you please:

Hi kimpham! I'm Joshua Kato, a PHP/Laravel developer applying for GSoC 2026 with Wikimedia. I'm very interested in this project and would love to contribute.
I have solid experience with PHP OOP and building REST API controllers in Laravel, so the pattern of creating entity-type-specific controllers feels very familiar to me.
I've already looked at the parent tasks (T413959, T413961, T420683) to understand the architecture direction. Could you:
