The Web3 Foundation Grants Program repository, which documents guidelines, application processes, levels, and milestone delivery for funding technical projects building on Polkadot and Kusama. The general grants program has been discontinued and the repository no longer accepts new applications.

Use cases

• apply for a Web3 Foundation grant for a Polkadot project
• find funding for a Substrate or Kusama development project
• understand the milestone delivery and payment process for ecosystem grants
• browse previously funded Polkadot ecosystem projects
• find alternative funding sources like treasury proposals or hackathons
• learn what makes a strong technical grant application

When to choose

• you want historical information about W3F grant guidelines, levels, or past grantees
• you are researching how blockchain foundation grant programs are structured
• you need pointers to alternative Polkadot funding sources such as the treasury

When to avoid

• you want to apply for a new grant - the program is discontinued and not accepting applications
• you need active funding for a Polkadot project - use treasury proposals or other programs instead
• you are looking for runnable software - this is a documentation repository, not a tool
