[***OpenGuild Technical Contributors***](https://github.com/openguild-labs/tech-seeding) is the interal group of members managed by [**OpenGuild Labs**](https://github.com/openguild-labs) to gather experience technical contributors and developers into one hub. Instead of building and contributing alone, individuals can join the *OG Technical Contributors* to grow further together.&#x20;

[**Polkadot Technical Fellowship**](https://wiki.polkadot.network/docs/learn-polkadot-technical-fellowship) is a decentralized organization that most technical contributors in the Polkadot ecosystem are keen on joining it. However, the barrier entry is high, especially for builders who don't have prior experience in blockchain and Polkadot. Hence, OpenGuild Technical Contributor is a sub-group of the OpenGuild Labs that helps builders to contribute actively and collaboratively to the Polkadot ecosystem with a more friendly entry barrier.&#x20;

Becasue [OG Technical Contributor](/general-information/og-technical-contributor) are still members of the OpenGuild community, you still receive full benefits of the&#x20;

> For [Elder](/general-information/membership/ranking-system/elder) and [LowLeveler](/general-information/membership/ranking-system/lowleveler), OG Technical Contributor is an optional sub-organization that you can join to leverage your technical skills. However, if you are not interested into the technical contribution, we still have bunches of other activities and benefits for you aside from this.&#x20;

# List of Technical Activites

Where you can find activities to work on as the OG technical contributors

## Opensource Repositories

OpenGuild Labs focus primarily on contributing to the open-source issues of projects in the Polkadot ecosystem and building new softwares to help grow the Polkadot developer experience.&#x20;

### Contributing to top Polkadot repositories

{% embed url="<https://daily.dev/blog/how-to-contribute-to-open-source-github-repositories>" %}
Please read it before moving forward
{% endembed %}

You can consider OpenGuild Labs as an umbrella entity that represents the [OG Technical Contributor](/general-information/og-technical-contributor) to contribute to the top repositories in the Polkadot ecosystem. Walking through a bit on how open-source contribution works, as external collaborators, we don't have a privellege to push code directly to the `main` branch of the repository. Hence, we need to fork a project and push commits to the forked repository's branch and request to merge our forked commits to the main repository.

* OpenGuild Labs - Polkadot SDK Fork: <https://github.com/openguild-labs/polkadot-sdk/tree/master>
* OpenGuild Labs - Polkadot Fellowship - Runtimes Fork: <https://github.com/openguild-labs/runtimes>
* OpenGuild Labs - OpenZeppelin - Polkadot Generic Runtime Template: <https://github.com/openguild-labs/polkadot-generic-runtime-template>
* OpenGuild Labs - Pop CLI: <https://github.com/openguild-labs/pop-cli/tree/main>

Pick one of the repositories listed above to contribute. Only merged Pull Requests that coming from the forked repositories will be counted as a valid contribution of the [OG Technical Contributor](/general-information/og-technical-contributor)&#x20;

### Contributing to repositories made by OpenGuild Labs

On the other hand, we recommend the [OG Technical Contributor](/general-information/og-technical-contributor) to be creative and thoughtful on the problems happening in the Polkadot ecosystem. By that way, you can propose a solution for the problem by making a tutorial or opensource software in the future.&#x20;

* `polkadot-rs` made by OpenGuild Labs: <https://github.com/openguild-labs/polkadot-rs>

* [x] Write a test for your Pallet. [Learn from Tutorial](https://docs.substrate.io/reference/how-to-guides/testing/set-up-basic-tests/)

#### How to win this track?

* [x] Good documentation
* [x] Solve a specific problem
* [x] Quality code

#### Description

In this track, we don't expect you to build a fully functional blockchain using Substrate but only a functional runtime module which solves a specific problems. If you are new to Polkadot and Substrate. Follow tutorials from the [official documentation](https://docs.substrate.io/quick-start/) or learn from the [Substrate Hackathon Knowledge Map](https://github.com/substrate-developer-hub/hackathon-knowledge-map) which contains many resources.

[Runtime modules](https://docs.substrate.io/reference/frame-pallets/) are core components of FRAME system in [Substrate Runtime development](https://docs.substrate.io/learn/runtime-development/). The FRAME development environment provides modules—called pallets—and support libraries that you can use, modify, and extend to build the runtime logic to suit the needs of your blockchain. Below are some examples:

* [pallet-staking](https://crates.parity.io/pallet_staking/index.html) is used to manage funds at stake by network maintainers which is used to implement the Proof of Stake blockchain or NPOS (Nominated Proof of Stake) blockchain using Substrate.
* [pallet-evm](https://docs.rs/pallet-evm/latest/pallet_evm/) is the EVM module allows unmodified EVM code to be executed in a Substrate-based blockchain.
* [pallet-nft](https://wiki.polkadot.network/docs/learn-nft-pallets) allow developers to easily implement NFT-related actions within their dApp.

#### Resources

* [Tutorial: Create your first runtime module](https://doc.deepernetwork.org/tutorials/v3/add-a-pallet/): Learn how to create your first [pallet-nicks](https://crates.io/crates/pallet-nicks) runtime module that allows you to assign a nick name for account on your Substrate-based blockchain.
* [Open Runtime Module Library (ORML)](https://github.com/open-web3-stack/open-runtime-module-library?tab=readme-ov-file): If you have developed Solidity application before, you might be familiar with [OpenZeppelin](https://www.openzeppelin.com/) which offers standard contract that help you to speed up the contract development process. In Substrate, we have ORML which contains a set of useful runtime modules.

## 📘 Hackathon Project Qualification Guide

### **Preliminary review 50%: (technical dimension)**

1. <mark style="color:purple;">Technical difficulty (20%):</mark> The problem solved has a certain technical threshold and there is a certain breakthrough at the technical level;
2. <mark style="color:purple;">Project completion (20%):</mark> The project is fully realized, not just the concept, and the Demo/POC display is complete;
3. <mark style="color:purple;">Standardization (10%):</mark> The project is submitted within the specified time and the content is standardized.

The preliminary review will mainly review the project's code submission, new features, test improvements, inheritance, deployment, etc. during the hackathon. Submitting a project with a clear history will help the reviewers understand the actual development work of the project.

### **Final 50%: (Business Dimension)**

1. <mark style="color:purple;">Commercial value (20%):</mark> Can solve problems and be used in industry scenarios you know;
2. <mark style="color:purple;">Innovation (20%):</mark> novel ideas, breakthroughs, breaking conventional thinking;
