Project Description

Have the Github users from the Effect Network interact and with you open source repositories to get more traction. The Effect workforce allows projects to easily tap into a fitting audience for their Github pages.

Summary

GitStar a pure Effect Network dApp with some unique features:

• The requester account is a smart contract
• The contract any Effect account to order stars (requester private key not required!)
• Progress bar that indicates every step needed to publish a task
• Useful Effect template that uses Github API
• Has an embedded revenue model, as the smart contract collects a fee

GitStar maintains its own smart contract in combination with the Effect qualification system to track credible workers with real Github account (GitStar is not a click farm!).
