This is a repository for bounties which are funded by the SCI. Click on issues to see open bounties! You can use labels to sort bounties by project, language, etc. If you are interested in contributing to bounties, you can contribute directly to individual bounties or donate to us on our website for a nice tax deduction. If you are making a donation of >$100 we can direct your donation to a specific bounty. You can also support us (US users) when you shop at amazon or eBay, click here for more information.

The SCI is a US 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to rebuilding the bridge of participation and trust between the public and the scientific process. We support tools and infrastructure that enable people to learn about and engage with science. Follow our work via our free newsletter on substack.

Developers: "watch" this repository (top right of screen) to be notified when new bounties are opened! These bounties are open to developers from all over the world.

Important: We have been informed that developers are having issues getting payouts from BountySource. We have contributed hundreds of dollars to bounties there, and that money is stuck there for now. All further bounty increases will be paid out directly by SCI instead of via BountySource an we encourage devs to assume any money currently in BountySource cannot be retrieved. We will pay out bounties directly instead.

How our bounty process works in plain english:

  • SCI or community identifies code that needs to be written
  • SCI posts bounty to this repo
  • Somebody submits code to claim bounty
  • SCI and relevant parties (project devs, other bountysource contributors) etc review code and suggest changes if needed
  • Once code is up to standard, bounty is awarded. Bounties on other platforms may have their own release conditions and standards such as identify verification.
  • Note that SCI will award bounties even if the code is not merged into the project code base (for example, because it will not make it into the next release of that software)

Here's how the Bounty flow typically works
