All the repositories in the c-frame organization, networked-aframe and aframe repositories have in the issues tracker the purple "sponsors needed", "$500", "$100", "$50", "$30", "$20", "$10" labels and blue "sponsorship goal achieved".
Issues having the "sponsors needed" label are waiting a one-time sponsorship from one or several individuals to the issue's assignee to work on it.
Be sure to communicate to the developer that your sponsorship is related to a specific issue, publicly by leaving a comment on the issue "I contributed $xx to @developer towards the sponsorship goal." or "I sponsored $xx to @developer to work on it." for example or privately to the developer on Discord or Slack if you know that they are active there.
If the donater doesn't add a comment themself, the developer will add a comment on the issue if there was any sponsorship received, respecting privacy if the donation was private, comment examples: "A private sponsor contributed $xx to the sponsorship goal. Thank you!", "This work was sponsored by a private sponsor. Thank you!", "Thanks @somebody for the sponsorship!", or "@somebody contributed $xx towards the sponsorship goal".
When the developper received enough sponsorship to work on an issue, the blue label "sponsorship goal achieved" is added.
Board listing the issues that need sponsors
If there is an issue you want to sponsor that is not listed there, please reach out to the most suitable developer for the task.
You can also consider donating a small amount monthly to the listed developers, just supporting their work and the countless time they spend helping you with your questions. Some issues on the board don't have a price label, that just means the developer will eventually work on it if there is enough monthly sponsors.
People having a sponsors page:
- Vincent Fretin: Working mainly on networked-aframe, aframe-inspector/aframe-editor and other components in the c-frame organization.
- Diego Marcos: Be aware that A-Frame is 100% independent and the current donations doesn't even cover the infrastructure cost (domain registration, build bots, ...)
Note for the developers creating the issues with the label "sponsors needed":
- This repository tracker is used to link to issues outside the c-frame organization that need sponsors so the issues are visible automatically in the board linked above. Please use as the issue title "[repo name] the original issue title". You can also create an issue here to create a new A-Frame component.
- Issues from other repositories in c-frame organization need to be added manually on the board. Using more than one "Auto-add to project" workflow is a paid GitHub feature and we're not currently paying for that.
- After you added the "sponsors needed" and price labels and assigned yourself to the issue, add a comment to the issue: "You can sponsor $xx to link_to_developer_sponsors_page to expedite this fix. Find other work you can sponsor at https://github.com/c-frame/sponsorship" for a bug fix or "You can sponsor $xx to link_to_developer_sponsors_page fully or partially to work on this feature. Find other work you can sponsor at https://github.com/c-frame/sponsorship" for a feature.
- On your sponsors page, add a link to https://github.com/c-frame/sponsorship
