It seems unlikely in your case.

Peter, Daniel raises an important point that will help you if you take it. The 
art of programming requires learning, and not superstition. If you don't know 
what Jigloo does, and others have pointed out that it isn't working, then you 
are helpless and powerless.

You also completely avoid the issue of the lack of documentation, the 
plagiarism which turns out not even to be necessary in the first place, and 
the general lack of utility of the project. These are serious issues, and 
resolving them will go a long way to making you a good programmer.

Refusing to resolve them, and taking the sort of negative attitude towards the 
universal advice you're receiving, are bad habits and will destroy your 
capabilities.

Just sayin' ...
