1️⃣ To get started, simply let us know you’re in for the bounty challenge on our Bounties Slack Channel with an “I’m In!”.
2️⃣ If you have any questions, need any build support or are just looking to have build buddies to chat with - ping us in the Bounties Slack channel and an awesome champ will be happy to jump in.
😜 Don’t worry, having issues is good! We are actually more interested in things that don’t work than things that do. 🤫
3️⃣Submit your final builds for each challenge by its due date via this submission form.
In the Bounty Slack channel, you can connect with other participants, ask questions, and share ideas.
We'll also explain the details of the bounty challenges and the criteria for winning rewards in that channel.
💡 ProTip: If you learn something interesting while building, be sure to add it in a ./knowledge file to your build submissions, so everyone can benefit!
Great question!
We recommend using GitHub to share your code with the community.
You can create a public repository and share the link with us via this submission form.
This will give us easy access to your project, and it will allow other members of the community to review and comment on your work. 🥳
We will also be providing more detailed instructions on how to submit your projects closer to the submission deadline.
We hope this helps! If you have any more questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to reach out on our community Slack channel.
