# Builder Program

As the testnet progresses enthusiastically, we will collaborate with top global developer communities and conduct online workshops. Our core team members will lead developers to explore Ola, deploying a variety of interesting dApps on our testnet using Ola-lang.&#x20;

Developers who deploy any type of contract on Ola will be entitled to the Discord Role "Ola Builder," receive an "Ola Builder NFT," and share a portion of the future Ola tokens among other perks.

## **FAQs**

If you need further help with dApp development or deployment, don't hesitate to pin us in the Ola [community](http://discord.gg/vDFy7YEG6j) or email us at <developer@olavm.org>.

### **How to apply for the Community Builders Program?**

Qualified projects will be rewarded with special Discord roles, NFTs, OVPs, and future Ola tokens among others.

## **Criteria**

Applications are accepted on a rolling basis and assessed on team quality, project uniqueness, and potential impact on the Ola ecosystem. This selection process will be conducted via a vote by Ola core team members and the Ola community.The following aspects will be taken into consideration for evaluating applications:

* *User Experience* - How seamless is it for contributors to use? Projects that are intended for an end-user (not Infrastructure & Tooling) are required to have a UI.
* *Architecture* - How robust is the technical architecture? How well is it defined?
* *Functionality* - How many different things can you do as an end user?
* *Impact* - Does the tooling or infrastructure provide valuable insights for contributors?
* *Novelty* - How unique is tooling or infrastructure? Is it differentiated?
