GitHub Sponsors is matching all sponsorships 100% and they also do not charge fees on either end of the transaction as well until sometime in June 2020. Still, you can support sol3 development by using any of the above. This is a time-consuming effort, so individuals who donate get to:
- steer the direction and time spent on sol
- get a role on the Discord server
- get their name put up in the CONTRIBUTORS list
- put something of their choice on sol3's README or the documentation's front page
"I need feature X, maybe you have it?"
--------------------------------------
Take a look at the :doc:`Features<features>` page: it links to much of the API. You can also just straight up browse the :doc:`api<api/api-top>` or ease in with the :doc:`tutorials<tutorial/tutorial-top>`. To know more about the implementation for usertypes, see :doc:`here<usertypes>` To know how function arguments are handled, see :ref:`this note<function-argument-handling>`. Don't see a feature you want? Send inquiries for support for a particular abstraction to the `issues`_ tracker.
