+
+Hello👋🏾,
+
+Welcome back to my Google Summer of Code (GSoC) 2024 journey!
+This week has been filled with progress and challenges as I continue to work on modernizing the FURY code base.
+
+
+Applying the keyword_only decorator
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+My main task this week was to apply the keyword_only decorator to several functions.
+The decorator ensures that all arguments except the first are keyword-only,
+which helps to make the code clearer and parameter passing more explicit.
+Some warnings appeared after applying this decorator, and to resolve them,
+I updated all the code where these functions were called with the necessary format. This was a very important step in maintaining the integrity and functionality of the code base.
+
+
+Managing the challenges of Git rebasing
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Rebasing the branch I was working on was the other major activity of my week.
+It was a real challenge because of the conflicts that arose and had to be resolved.
+It involved a lot of research and problem-solving on how to resolve these conflicts,
+which greatly enhanced my understanding of Git. It was a challenging but satisfying experience of version control management and complex mergers.
+
+
+Peer code review
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+In addition to my duties, I was also tasked with reviewing the code of my peers.
+This exercise was very rewarding, as it enabled me to understand different coding styles and approaches.
+The constructive comments and suggestions were beneficial not only for teammates,
+but also for improving my own coding and reviewing skills.
+
+
+Acknowledgements
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+I would like to thank all my classmates: `Iñigo Tellaetxe Elorriaga <https://github.com/itellaetxe>`_, `Robin Roy <https://github.com/robinroy03>`_, `Kaustav Deka <https://github.com/deka27>`_ and my guide: `Serge Koudoro <https://github.com//skoudoro>`_ for their constructive suggestions on my work.
+Their ideas and suggestions were of great help to me and I am grateful for their support and advice.
+
+
+What happens next?
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Here's a summary of what I plan to do in week two:
+
+- Apply the keyword_only decorator to all other necessary functions.
+- Update the calling of these functions in the code to ensure consistency and avoid raising warnings.
+- Rename the decorator with a more descriptive name.
+- Add two parameters to the decorator, specifying from which version of FURY it will work.
+
+
+🥰Thanks for reading! Your comments are most welcome, and I look forward to giving you a sneak preview of my work next week.
