The scores at hive.one are great at identifying how the community ranks developers.

API docs: https://docs.hive.one/

Looking at the project https://trustonailende.com/spacebox-bitcoin-node-kit/ how would the network work? It's not mentioned on the website yet an important question to address up front. Can't ask on Twitter because the account got censored :/

Can we add ourselves?

If passed an arg on the URL e.g., ?dev=JeremyRubin, the page should display that dev on top taking up a whole row and the other devs below (or something similar).

This would make it easier to share links to specific devs while also keeping traffic on bitcoindevlist.com to see other devs who might be good to fund.

The README.md describes the website as:

The website lists people working on Bitcoin and related projects. The goal is to increase the visibility of contributors to the space that are accepting donations. If you are currently working on a bitcoin related open source project, submit a PR to get yourself added.

I see several waiting PRs that seem to align with this which are uncommented upon, however I see that PR #100 was ACKed and merged promptly.

If there is additional criteria being applied, it would be helpful to add that to the README.md, or at least give some reply to the pending PRs about why they might not fit the particular ideals of this noble developer-funding effort.

This issue requests to add multiple donation fields/link to each submission. Some people have for example a github sponsor page AND a bitcoin donation page.
Both could be visible at the same time to provide more options. Options is good :)

UX example:

Ideally, additional donation links & fields are invisible/inactive until proper field in data.js is populated.

In order to support BOLT 12 offers - for single as well as recurring - I suggest adding one or two fields to the JSON:

1. bolt12_single
2. bolt12_recurring

The best practice then would be to create two offers, without an amount. Like so in c-lightning:

lightning-cli offer any "Open source development donation" "Shady Super-Coder" "open-source-single-donation"
lightning-cli offer any "Open source development monthly donation" "Shady Super-Coder" "open-source-monthly-donation" null null null 1month

The site could then display these somewhere (as plain text for now, QR when mobile wallets support it).

On the donator side IIUC they use lightning-cli createinvoicerequest [bolt12]. This method is as yet undocumented, so yolo. I assume it returns an invoice that you then pay.

There's some discussion about making this flow more automated: lightning/bolts#798 (comment)

Initially perhaps bolt12_single is a good start, since recurring payments are very tedious. But they would be really awesome once there.

Please add an anchor to the donatees, so you can link to them on the landing page in addition to the variant /donatee-name where the donatee appears big and on top.

I think that's a tiny change around line 16 of template.pug but I'm not familiar with pug, so ... sorry for no PR.

People would be more likely to provide PRs if it were easier to get started. Please provide instructions on how to run the site locally.

This is less of an "issue" or a "feature request" and more of an "I'd like to build this and looking for feedback".

I'm cooking up an idea to help grow lightning adoption, as well as get some sats into developers' hands. It basically happens in two parts:

1. Add lnurl-pay to bitcoindevlist.com, this can just be another field in the existing donatee json files.
2. Add features to existing popular Telegram bots (eg: Cheeserobot or lntxbot) that randomly selects a developer daily, and spits out their lnurl-pay address. The bots could pull the info directly from github for now, maybe build a proper API for the site in the future.

Interesting? Stupid? Inappropriate for the main site? I'd love to hear your thoughts. 😃

First of all, thank you for this initiative. Just wanted to ask a simple question: given that bitcoin's ethos is trustlessness, could you develop a way to donate without having to trust the developers of this website to channel the funds through them? I suppose this doesn't work this way because the json files provided don't include a bitcoin address or LN node URI.

Pinging @rustyrussell, you should add yourself to this list :)

The current UI design feels a bit unbalanced with uneven empty spaces, maybe consider changing to a more structured table layout?

I was testing locally and I added a lightning address to my profile, others have a shorter address that seems to fit inside the element. Mine is a bit longer and the element does not seem to responsively adjust size and the address overflows. See screenshot:
