+### Inspektor Gadget
+
+#### Support for new types of eBPF programs
+
+- Description: Inspektor Gadget is an eBPF tool and systems inspection framework for Kubernetes, containers and Linux hosts. Users can develop gadgets using different kinds of eBPF programs: kprobe, tracepoint, etc. This project will focus on adding support for more kinds of eBPF programs such as uprobes and ensuring the documentation is updated for each of them
+- Expected Outcome: Inspektor Gadget has support for additional eBPF program kinds
+- Recommended Skills: Go, containers, Linux, basics of eBPF

+#### Testing framework for image-based gadgets
+
+- Description: Inspektor Gadget is an eBPF tool and systems inspection framework for Kubernetes, containers and Linux hosts. Previously, Inspektor Gadget had a set of built-in gadgets. We are now moving to image-based gadgets where users can develop their own gadgets in eBPF and host them in OCI registries. But we don't have a test framework to help gadget authors to test their gadgets. This project will focus on implementing such a framework, possibly taking inspiration from the existing framework for built-in gadgets. The documentation for gadget authors should be updated. This project has the opportunity to expand beyond testing, to work on the gadget development experience over all, for example by creating a github template for gadget development.
+- Expected Outcome: Gadget authors can test their gadgets
+- Recommended Skills: Go, containers, Linux, testing
