GSoC 2026: ECMAScript Conformance Project - Introduction & Scope Question

[Tanush576]

Hi everyone! I'm Tanush, a prospective GSoC 2026 contributor focusing on the ECMAScript Conformance project.
To get familiar with Boa's internals and testing suite, I recently submitted three PRs:
[Merged] PR #4977: Set.prototype.intersection comprehensive tests
[Open] PR #5017: String.prototype.repeat spec-alignment
[Open] PR #5018: String.prototype.padStart/End OOM safety limits

I am currently drafting my 350-hour GSoC proposal timeline. Would the team prefer a student to focus entirely on bringing standard built-ins (String, Array, Math) to 100% Test262 compliance, or use the latter half of the summer to lay the Rust groundwork for a larger module like Intl?

Looking forward to contributing more to the engine!
