I'd like to do an external evaluation. @semuelle

[uiii]

Hi guys, I understand you might have too much work these days, but may I ask you when I can expect the evaluation?

[semuelle]

Hey @uiii, sorry for the wait. I'll discuss this with @PieWol, who wanted to do the evaluation. I think this would still be the best option as most of the grants team is ooo for the holidays, but I'll get back to you with more info asap.

[PieWol]

Hey @uiii ,
here is the link to my external evaluation PR. I have two aspects that hinder this delivery for approval. Looking forward to your response to the issues I raised.

[uiii]

Hi @PieWol, merry Christmas and thanks for the evaluation, here is my response to the issues:

1. Show related runtime metadata in item's detail

I agree that metadata docs in spec 100001 is not so helpful, but parsing it and linking to the relevant sources it out of the scope of the current milestone. We just display what is present in the spec's metadata. As you can see, the polkadot-js documentation shows the same: https://polkadot.js.org/docs/polkadot/extrinsics#balances

We can improve it in the future, but right know I don't have a strightforward solution.

2. building and testing output

Critical vulnerabilities are in webpack and @babel/travers package, there are the transitive dependencies of react-scripts and we use the latest version.

3. trying to run locally with "npm start" as given in the readme

I cannot reproduce the error. I tried Windows cmd and also WSL. Which OS do you use? Try to update to the latest NodeJs version (LTS 20.x).

[PieWol]

Hey @uiii, I have been busy for the holidays.

regarding 3. I'm using node v21.2.0 on Mac with ARM. I will try the latest LTS version as you suggested and get back to you.
For the metadata issue I would like to wait for feedback by @semuelle .

Hope you had a wonderful Christmas.

[uiii]

Hi @PieWol,
you can also try the docker option, it should work on every platform.

Thanks, enjoy Christmas too.

hey @uiii ,
I managed to get it working by removing the package lock and reinstalling all packages again. To profit from the standardization I used the docker image for testing. All 174 tests passed.

% npm run test                          

> calamar@0.1.0 test
> playwright test


Running 174 tests using 1 worker
  174 passed (4.3m)

Furthermore I thought about the metadata issue I complained about. Given that you are supporting so many networks I get it, that it's not in the scope of this grant to individually care for any metadata deviation.

With the tests passing and the metadata issue being outside of the scope of this grant, I see this as accepted.

[semuelle]

Hey @uiii. I have verified the evaluation. I didn't have any issues with testing locally. I also noticed that the Polkadot data is a couple of days old, but I assume you have good reasons to fix this asap. One minor issue I would suggest to change is to make the tooltip when hovering over the extrinsic name clickable also. I kept clicking the text, not realizing that the icon is clickable only. Also, linking to a search of the extrinsic name from the extrinsic name isn't quite intuitive.

In any case, your milestone is hereby accepted (see evaluation notes here). Congrats on completing the grant and best of luck going forward!

We noticed that this is the last milestone of your project. Congratulations on completing your grant! 🎊

So, where to from here? First of all, you should join our Grants Community chat, if you haven't already, so we can stay in touch.
If you are looking for continuative support for your project, there are quite a few options. The main goal of the W3F grants program is to support research as well as early-stage technical projects. If your project still falls under one of those categories, you might want to apply for a follow-up grant. However, depending on your goals and project status, there are other support programs in our ecosystem that might be better suited as the next step. For example, projects with a Business Case/Token should look into the Substrate Builders Program or VC Funding and Common Good projects have a good chance of receiving Treasury Funding. If you are looking for guidance, the team at https://substrate.io/ecosystem/square-one/ has compiled a list of ecosystem support sources and are happy to help you navigate it.

For a more comprehensive list, see our Alternative Funding page. Let us know if you have any questions regarding the above. We are more than happy to point you to additional resources and help you determine the best course of action.
Lastly, we hope your W3F grant was a success and we want to thank you for being part of the journey!
