New Improvements to the Flipstarter Software by a Dev who Joined the Community Recently
@salemkode is a Javascript developer who have benefited from the great and well organized system of bounties offered by the Flipstarter development team. https://gitlab.com/groups/flipstarter/-/milestones/4 He have done few improvements to the Flipstarter software that you can read about it below. He have done both **paid** and **unpaid** work. I thought I might mention his work and put his donation address so community can encourage him to build more. https://gitlab.com/salemkode/donation/
His Flipstarter Work Add a field for progress tracking URL https://gitlab.com/flipstarter/backend/-/merge_requests/56 For better transparency and monitoring of progress
Merge Request (MR) #56 https://gitlab.com/flipstarter/backend/-/merge_requests/56 Add visual date input instead of manual numeric input
MR #53 https://gitlab.com/flipstarter/backend/-/merge_requests/53 Field Validation to validate input errors before submitting
MR #53 https://gitlab.com/flipstarter/backend/-/merge_requests/53 Make social media pick up the summary Before, no title or description
After
MR #51 https://gitlab.com/flipstarter/backend/-/merge_requests/51 Other work He have done other work like: Make it easier to add a language https://gitlab.com/flipstarter/backend/-/merge_requests/48 Update dependencies to higher version (avoid security issue and bugs with older version) https://gitlab.com/flipstarter/backend/-/merge_requests/50 Other work also in progress like: Adding images internally without linking to outside website His updates are on the development branch of the software. Users who want to enjoy those upgrades have to deploy from master. He also introduced a bug xD While work in Flipstarter was great it wasn't without issues, a bug in one updated library caused an issue to releasing donation but there was an easy workaround and a quick fix was released by downgrading. https://gitlab.com/flipstarter/backend/-/merge_requests/55 Special thanks To @JonathanSilverblood for creating this awesome software and for @emergent_reasons for managing bounties and being patient with @salemkode :) Donations As I mentioned in the intro, you may want to tip to encourage him to do more and encourage other developers to join building tools for the peer to peer electronic cash https://gitlab.com/salemkode/donation/#donations

I have had exactly this article on my to-do list for a while now! You covered all the things I wanted to cover also. I really appreciate the work @salemkode is doing and also appreciate this article.
Thanks man, it's just a very short summary about the work you did with @salemkode I hope other projects copy this style in bounties offering and handling new developers.
I've forwarded the rewards for this Article that I gathered till now to @salemkode as it was his work that I gathered and talked about. https://read.cash/@salemkode/post-00a1cfad
