Cardano Projects require additional expertise, knowledge, time and resources to be able to progress effectively, and lack of these thing is holding them back from integrating solutions such as MeshJS
MeshJS will pro-actively facilitate integration of our open source code into other Cardano Projects by directly providing financial and human resources to support and facilitate these integrations
This is the total amount allocated to Mesh: Support Teams Building Cardano dApps with MESH JS SDK (A comprehensive open-source SDK for building dApps on Cardano).

MeshJS has successfully developed a wide range of Cardano-based open source code. This proposal aims to empower Cardano Projects by creating tools that seamlessly integrate MeshJS components into their projects and provide guidance and support for effective utilization of MeshJS code. The goal is to enhance the Cardano open source developer ecosystem and make it more accessible.
Our proposal directly answers the following points in the campaign brief:
Mesh JS SDK is committed to open-source, and this means the maximum number of projects possible can potentially benefit
The success of Mesh SDK will be measured by uptake of the SDK by developers and the impact this has on development of dApps in the Cardano ecosystem.
More specifically:
MeshJS is already one of the easiest-to-use SDKs on Cardano for dApp development, and the team has a proven track record of creating high-quality tools, clear and comprehensive documentation and successful integration of code into other Cardano projects. We have facilitated integrations through mentorship on the MeshJS Discord, comprehensive guides on our website, and open source code on GitHub. Further, we aim to continue to uphold high levels of trust and accountability throughout the project.
The main goals of the project are:
We will validate the feasibility of our approach by:

Note: We calculate the Proposal Budget at a price of 0.30USD/Ada )
Milestone #1 - Month 1: Content Creation and Outreach
Content Creation
Outreach
Milestone #2 - Month 2: Project Selection and Funding Allocation
5 Projects with 5000 Usd in Ada each = 25.000 Usd =
Milestone #3 - Month 3: Consultancy Services and Implementation Guidance
5 Projects with weekly check in & consulting calls
5 calls per week
20 calls per month
1 call = 1 hr = 170 Usd
= 3400 Usd in Ada
For two consultants
Total = 6800 Usd in Ada
Coordination
Creating meeting Agendas, and meetings, provide meeting summaries and facilitate action items, Document activities and transfer funds
One month, one person = 1900 Usd in Ada
Milestone #4 - Month 4: Progress Monitoring and Impact Assessment
Milestone #5 - Month 5: Continued Monitoring and Success Documentation
Milestone #6 - Month 6: Creation of a Proof-of-Concept Use Cases Library
Seamless Integration: By providing financial incentives and expert guidance, the project ensures that Cardano projects can integrate MeshJS code smoothly and efficiently. This will maximize the value derived from using MeshJS and reduce the time and resources required for integration.
Enhanced Developer Ecosystem: The project's investment in comprehensive documentation, tutorials, and outreach campaigns increases awareness and accessibility of MeshJS. This empowers developers within the Cardano ecosystem to leverage MeshJS and contribute to the growth and innovation of the ecosystem.
Measurable Impact: Through monitoring and evaluation, the project will assess the success and outcomes of integrated projects. This data-driven approach ensures accountability and demonstrates the tangible value of MeshJS integration, fostering trust and confidence within the Cardano community.
Long-Term Benefits: The resources allocated in this project will have lasting effects on the Cardano ecosystem. By incentivizing integration, providing guidance, and promoting best practices, the project contributes to the long-term sustainability and scalability of Cardano projects built on MeshJS.
