This is a list of awesome resources and projects on the Stacks blockchain, maintained by the Stacks community. Stacks is a blockchain project that brings smart contracts to a chain that has native visibility into Bitcoin state.

  • A code license like MIT, BSD, Apache, GPL, etc, is not acceptable. Neither are WTFPL and Unlicense.
  • Place a file named license or LICENSE in the repo root with the license text.
  • Do not add the license name, text, or a Licence section to the readme. GitHub already shows the license name and link to the full text at the top of the repo.
  • To verify that you've read all the guidelines, please comment on your pull request with just the word unicorn.
• Has contribution guidelines.
  • The file should be named contributing.md. Casing is up to you.
  • It can optionally be linked from the readme in a dedicated section titled Contributing, positioned at the top or bottom of the main content.
  • The section should not appear in the Table of Contents.
• All non-important but necessary content (like extra copyright notices, hyperlinks to sources, pointers to expansive content, etc) should be grouped in a Footnotes section at the bottom of the readme. The section should not be present in the Table of Contents.
• Has consistent formatting and proper spelling/grammar.
  • The link and description are separated by a dash.
    Example: - [AVA](…) - JavaScript test runner.
  • The description starts with an uppercase character and ends with a period.
  • Consistent and correct naming. For example, Node.js, not NodeJS or node.js.
• Doesn't use hard-wrapping.
• Doesn't include a Travis badge.
  You can still use Travis for list linting, but the badge has no value in the readme.
• Doesn't include an Inspired by awesome-foo or Inspired by the Awesome project kinda link at the top of the readme. The Awesome badge is enough.

Go to the top and read it again.

Thanks for making an Awesome list! 🙌

It looks like you didn't read the guidelines closely enough. I noticed multiple things that are not followed. Try going through the list point for point to ensure you follow it. I spent a lot of time creating the guidelines so I wouldn't have to comment on common mistakes, and rather spend my time improving Awesome.

[pgray-hiro]

Hi @sindresorhus, I appreciate the feedback, but I've gone over the list multiple times in the past few days (and have again just now), and believe that our list is meeting all of the guidelines set forth in your document. Can you please help me understand where we're not in compliance? Thanks.

@pgray-hiro
Your PR to the Awesome list doesn't have the correct punctuation "A smart contract platform secured by Bitcoin", needs a punctuation mark (.) at the end.

[pgray-hiro]

Thanks @mat7ias - this should be resolved now.

[sindresorhus]

I would make the intro Stacks Chain is a blockchain anchored by Bitcoin that enables apps, smart contracts, and digital assets. and then linkify Stacks Chain to its website.

I would also like the intro text to be a little bit more verbose. Why is Stacks Chain cool, what problems does it solve, etc.

---

Consistent and correct naming. For example, Node.js, not NodeJS or node.js.

Applies to "bitcoin", "stx", and maybe more.

[sindresorhus]

Why does the title include "Chain"? The Stacks project doesn't use this in its naming.

[pgray-hiro]

Thanks for your feedback on the intro text and consistent naming. I will update our list with that in mind.

Why does the title include "Chain"? The Stacks project doesn't use this in its naming.

When we were crafting the list we were concerned about the naming collision with the Awesome Stacks repo for tech stacks, which is already listed in Awesome.re. We thought adding "Chain" to it would help differentiate. That being said, Stacks is the officially used title (without chain). We can change the title if you think the naming collision is acceptable.

[sindresorhus]

I think that's fine. They're in different sections and the description clarifies.

[pgray-hiro]

The changes you requested are merged into the Awesome Stacks repo - here's a quick summary of what we did:

• Change title from Stacks Chain to Stacks for consistency with the project.
• Consistency and correctness in naming - STX, Bitcoin, Lightning Network, TypeScript, JavaScript were all identified as either not consistent or not correctly formed.
• Update the introduction text to include a link to the Stacks website
• Update the introduction text to include more context on what Stacks is and why it's cool.

[sindresorhus]

You also need to enable the issue tracker on the repo.
