+ +## Participation Rules + +
+
• You can submit as many projects as you like.
+
• Each project may be submitted by an individual or a group of participants.
+
• Different projects from the same participant(s) can be eligible for different prizes.
+
• Projects must run on the Xahau Mainnet.
+
+
• Each project must be accessible online, so that both judges and the public can use or view it.
+
â—¦ This avoids the need for judges to install or configure projects locally, and reduces the risk of unexpected errors or participant assistance being required.
+
+
+
• Each submission must include basic documentation to help others understand the project.
+
â—¦ Optionally, you can also include multimedia material (videos, slides, demos, etc.) to better explain your work.
+
+
• AI tools may be used both for development and documentation.
+
• If your project uses Hooks, the Hook code must be open source, so that it can be audited for safety and serve as a learning resource for the community. You must attach their C code in your submission along with the hook hash. Check the "Submission Format" section.
+
• Projects that clearly offer regulated financial services or that target illegal activities are not eligible.
+
• To be evaluated by the judges, you must include your submission with a PR as indicated in the "Submission Format" section.
+
• Once your submission PR has been created, post a tweet on X about your project, tagging @XahauNetwork, to announce that you've participated in the Xahau Dev Contest.
+
+
+ +## Evaluation Criteria + +When reviewing submissions, judges will especially value: + +
+
• Originality and creativity of the idea.
+
• Absence of existing competitors providing the same service on Xahau Mainnet prior to the contest.
+
• Impact and usefulness for end users (individuals, businesses, or public sector).
+
• Quality of execution (stability, documentation, user experience).
+
• Use of Hooks (Smart Contracts on Xahau).
+
+
+ +## Submission Format + +Each project must include a folder and at least a **submission file** inside submissions directory of **[this repository](https://github.com/xahau/xahau-2nd-dev-contest)**. +The file and directory must be named with your GitHub username followed by the project name, separated by an underscore, and using the .md extension for the file. + +Example: submissions/GitHubName_ProjectName/GitHubName_ProjectName.md + +The file should contain the following fields: + +
+
• Project Title
+
• Brief Description
+
• Participants (names or nicknames)
+
• Participants' Social Media
+
• Contact Email
+
• Link to the Online Project
+
• Xahau Address to receive the prize in case of winning
+
• Link to Documentation
+
• Hooks code in C and matching hash (in case your project uses one or more, to confirm it's safe, you should add .c files in your submission folder)
+
• Hooks account of the project (to confirm you are using the hooks previously provided for this project)
+
• Link to Project's Repository (optional)
+
• Other Links (optional, e.g., demo video, presentation, slides)
