Specification

How will this Delegate Mission Request help accomplish the above intent?

Developer toolings play a crucial role in the widespread use of OP Stack and Superchain. These tools simplify the process of developing and deploying OP Stack and Superchain. They also lessen the time and effort required to create and implement the OP Stack chain and dApps that operate across OP Stack chains.

Example of these open source toolings:

• simple-optimism-node 3
• op-wagmi (Now superseded by Viem 2.0)
• roll-op 2
• opstack-compose

What is required to execute this Delegate Mission Request?:

• Developers should have a substantial history of experience in developing tools relevant to the proposal. A background in contributing to related open-source tools is a plus.
• For existing open-source toolings, proposals for enhancements or new features to existing open-source tools are required. A detailed development roadmap for the year 2024 must be included in the submission.
• The open-source tooling should be primarily aimed at the development and deployment of OP Stack or dApps on OP Stack. If the tooling offers a broad range of features, the proposal should specifically emphasize those aspects related to OP Stack. For instance, if proposing for Viem 2.0 – a general Ethereum client library with functions specific to OP Stack – the focus should be on the implementation of these OP Stack-specific functions.
• The proposed developer tooling must be open source.
• The grant proposal must receive approval from the Developer Advisory Board.

How should the Token House measure progress towards this Mission?:

• Monitor open source GitHub repository for progress
• Updates to the Grants Council on project progression at the end (12 months).

How should badgeholders measure impact upon completion of this Mission?:

• Assess the extent to which the open source tooling is being utilized and adopted within the relevant community or by target users.
• Monitor mentions and discussions about the tooling on various social media platforms and forums.
• Analyze key metrics on GitHub such as Issues, Pull Requests, Stars, Watches, and Forks.
• Incorporation into the official Optimism documentation (https://docs.optimism.io/)

I'd like to apply, but the charm verse link appears to be down.

Hi @actuallyrizzn -- best to direct this question to the grants chat in the optimism discord!
