As you might know or not, I am the proud owner of BG-Software, a small company that has two successful plugin series - the wild-series plugins and the superior-series plugins.
I left the Minecraft development industry a few weeks ago, and I decided to open source all of the plugins (including WildStacker and SuperiorSkyblock, both are pretty well known plugins that many servers use). Therefore, I am seeking for developers that want to contribute their time and maintain the plugins. It's not a paid position, mainly because I have no way to pay for developers to maintain the plugins anymore. However, by keeping the plugins maintained, you can gain great reputation and get in contact with many big server owners and work with them together. By becoming an "official contributors" you'll probably start receiving lots of freelancing requests and even long-term positions in many servers. My discord server has more than 2,500 members inside it, and there have been more than 8,000 customers that purchased the plugins.
Benefits of the position
- Gain reputation
- Get in contact with many server owners for potential jobs
- Increase your skills in development
What the position requires from you?
Maintaining the plugins. Mainly major bug fixing, and maybe adding feature requests from time to time (If you want, you can charge money for it)
Answering tickets on the discord server. I decided to keep a tickets support system for people that boost the server or become patrons. It means that there aren't many people that have access to it, so it shouldn't be difficult to handle.
Accepting good and quality pull requests from other members. The community wants to help, and there are developers that make pull requests from time to time. I won't have the time to check them all, and therefore I am looking for developers that can go through them, find potential bugs in them and also accept them if they are good.
How can you join to the position?
Simply by making pull requests for bug fixes and new features. Before receiving access to the code as contributors, I want to see how well your skills are. By creating pull requests and helping people in the discord server I can evaluate your skills and patience to the take the position.
