No open source is about continuous development and you can always raise new issues and work on them
And yes it is worth it as contributing to open source will help you learn a lot

There is no conclusive end to the addition of features and fixing the bugs in the projects, even after the program is over you can and people will contribute to those programmes.
there are always more bugs and features to be added more improvement to the UI and so on..

If you have registered as contributors, than yes you can start it any time before the last date that is August 10. No issue over that.

It is completly fine if u start a month late, as we know that GSSOC'24 a 3 month long program if u dedicatedly contribute the other two months u can definetly can add the value and make a spot on the leaderboard.

No worries if you begin a month later! GSSOC'24 spans three months, so if you dedicate yourself to the remaining two months, you can still make a significant impact and secure a place on the leaderboard. Open source is all about ongoing progress, so you can always raise new issues and tackle them. Remember, contributing to open source is valuable as it helps you learn a lot.
