Solana Foundation Seeks Proposals For Open Source Data Tools Development

According to BlockBeats, on September 7, the Solana Foundation announced a call for community proposals aimed at advancing the development of open-source data tools for the Solana blockchain. The foundation is offering up to $160,000 in funding for this initiative. The request for proposals (RFP) includes two main projects: the Solana Indexer Tool and the Solana Verifier Directory Details and Application. The former has a total funding of $100,000 and aims to support developers by providing access to real-time and historical data from Solana programs and accounts through the construction of end-to-end open-source infrastructure solutions. The latter, with a total funding of $60,000, seeks to create an open-source verifier database, enabling developers to interact with contracts deployed by unknown entities and parse instructions. Both RFPs are designed to enhance the developer experience and data tools on the Solana blockchain. The deadline for submissions is October 4, 2024.
