I’m specifically referencing the application part of the CPS platform: CPS Console
My main goal for these improvements are to remove barriers of entry for external developers, improve the quality of proposals submitted and improve the overall UX for: Developers, PReps and Community Members.
- Header
- We need a place to show the treasury balances, and which period it is
- Dashboard
- Displays information to users logged in w/ wallet
- Request for Proposals (RFPs)
- Off-chain
- A place for the community to place requests for what types of projects they think the ICON ecosystem needs.
- Proposal Draft
- Off-chain
- A place for users to submit their proposal drafts/ideas (as opposed to the forum). These drafts would be editable and community members/P-Reps could comment on them, helping shape high-quality proposals.
- Would open new window rather than a pop-up
- Sponsor Request
- Off-chain
- Flipped from the current process, proposal sponsorships would be open to all participating P-Reps and P-Reps would request to become a sponsor for projects. This removes the barrier of entry for external teams trying to identify P-Reps to sponsor them, and creates a competitive environment where projects choose the P-Rep that will give them the highest chance of success.
- Maybe these Sponsors pay the application fee?
- Proposals
- On-chain
- Once a sponsorship is accepted, proposals are officially submitted and moved to this section during the Application Period, to be voted on during the Voting Period.
- Progress Reports
- On-chain
- Active projects are automatically moved to this section, continuing to update on their proposal’s progress and being voted on during the Voting Period to receive funding.
- History
- A place to review completed CPS projects (and possibly review voting history for P-Reps?)
- Being able to see all the previous proposals and their outcomes on one tab/page. Each finished project should have a link to the finished projects + some video/images of the finished project being used provided by the proposing team.
- Statistics
- More detailed statistics for the CPS, both for proposals and its treasury
- number of participating PReps, amount of ICX burned, amount of ICX funded, $ value funded, # of different projects funded, # of different teams funded
