vac:web:ift:2025q4-logos-contributions-portal

Description §

This commitment involves developing Logos Contribute, a comprehensive contribution hub that recognizes open source contributors and helps new developers make their first meaningful contributions to the Logos ecosystem. The portal serves as a critical component of the volunteer-driven, open source community building strategy, showcasing contributor activity, providing curated resources, and offering clear pathways for community engagement.

The Logos Contribute portal directly supports the quarterly KPIs by:

• External Developer Contributions: Tracking and encouraging 10% month-over-month increase in external developers contributing to the Logos technology stack
• Community Activation: Supporting the 10% activation benchmark for new community members through clear contribution pathways
• Hacktivation Barriers: Providing 10% increase in tagged lower tasks by CCs in GitHub repositories
• Community Retention: Helping retain contributors through recognition and engagement systems

Key Features Include:

• Contributor Directory: Displays GitHub usernames, profile links, contribution counts, and contribution history
• Individual Profiles: Detailed pages with contribution details and complete contribution lists
• Search Functionality: Search by GitHub username or repository name
• Contribution Guidelines: Clear instructions and best practices maintained on GitHub
• Contributor Ladder: Structured growth path where contributors earn recognition, responsibilities, and privileges (from leaderboard presence and swag to reviewer rights and governance roles) as they progress through ranks
• Contributors Leaderboard: Seasonal and all-time rankings highlight active contributors across coding, design, documentation, translation, etc.
• Proposal Submission: Form allowing developers, writers, designers, and others to submit proposals
• GitHub Issues Integration: Display curated issues from contribute.logos.co repository

Alignment with IFT Narratives:

• Digital Liberties: Supporting open source development that defends civil liberties through community-driven innovation
• Community Co-creation: Enabling user-generated content and community participation through contribution recognition
• Accessibility: Making open source contribution accessible not only to developers of all skill levels, but also to designers, writers, translators, community builders, and event organizers
• Brand Coherence: Strengthening Logos’ position as a hub for movement-building volunteers and collaborators
