Cere Contributor Levels show the maximum difficulty level achieved by someone while completing their Contributor Journey. Contributor levels are mapped in Discord as roles. Using Discord roles allow us to work with access permissions in Dework, making it possible to have exclusive bounties, whitelisted by Level, and Guild Role.
Welcome to the Cere community! Please read the community guidelines, introduce yourself and let us know if you have any questions or issues. Join the Discord, Telegram, Twitter, and Linked-in. See sidebar navigation for links.
You’re starting to understand a bit about how things work around here. You’ll be doing simple tasks that require no previous knowledge to complete. You’re learning what Cere is all about and why we're building the Cere Network and the Decentralized Data Cloud. You are expected to be doing things like retweeting important announcements, forking Cere Repositories and supporting new members with questions about deploying validator nodes and other such topics.
You’re ready for slightly more complicated tasks, which require familiarity with existing repositories and code and a general understanding and overview of architecture and development workflows. You know how to build on the Cere Network. You’re submitting bug reports with steps to reproduce, sharing a unique, personalized review of a project or update in the ecosystem, exploring new example use-cases. You are expected to touch on topics from SDKs to launching new NFT mints and decentralized data cloud integrations.
You have specialized at this level. You’ve become a subject matter expert in at least one area. You will be building or working with projects that are directly relevant to the community, project, or ecosystem. You are broadly known in the community, seen as an essential part of the team. You might be running workshops or hunting for hackathon bounties with the DDC, presenting about your project at a local meet-up, or competing for bounties in a Cere-sponsored hackathon team.
Cere Ambassadors, you have proven yourself worthy! Welcome to the team! 👏 Time to collect your rewards. Depending on the track you graduated, you’ll either be knighted as an Ambassador for the Angel, Devel, Ops, or Tester Guilds. At this level, the community is gathering around you and looking for your advice in your area of expertise, and people come to you asking for support directly. You’re a role model and known within the community for your work. You’re leading workshops around implementing or integrating with Cere Network open source projects or maintaining a community SDK project, identifying critical gaps in usability, reliability or security and proactively working to close them. You might be running your own regional community and keeping the conversation going in your native language in Discord & Telegram. And maybe you’ll come work with us here, at Cere. 🫱🏾🫲🏼
Upon graduation of the final L4 task, each member will be granted a new title for their contributions and effort: Cere Ambassador.
After that, all you have to do is continue to earn at least 500 XP per month to maintain your status as Cere Ambassador.
To encourage your active support to improve the Cere Community 💜 we offer a exclusive Leaderboard Tournament to Ambassadors worth more than $500 in prize give aways each month.
