Hey, Developer Community!
We’ve launched a brand-new activity on Global Masters — the Article Bounty!
It’s your chance to share your expertise, help fellow developers, and, of course, earn points while doing it.
👉 Join the August Article Bounty on Global Masters here
Earlier, we launched the Submit an Article Idea challenge — where Global Masters members could suggest new articles, tutorials, how-tos, and more. We received an overwhelming number of fantastic ideas!
👉 Now, once a month, we’ll publish a list of 10 in-demand topics requested by the community.
You can choose a topic from the list, write an article about it, and earn bounty of 🏆 5,000 points when the article is approved.
