Hi @gsieczkowski10clouds, thank you for your application! We will look into it as soon as possible.

Thanks for the application. I’m also pinging Santiago here since he originally created the RFP. I have a few initial comments/questions:

• Usually, we ask teams to come up with some mock-ups/initial designs for front-end focused applications. Since this is an RFP, it might be a little bit different this time, but could you share some of your previous work? Obviously feel free to also share mock-ups, if you have any.
• With your first milestone do you only provide the design of it or the actual implementation? “Implemented as One Page Design” might confuse me here.
• Do you potentially also plan to support the polkadot.js extension with your page? I think this would be useful for most crowdloans, even if it’s not part of the RFP.

• Added some examples of our previous works focused on front-end products in blockchain solutions at the end of the file
• "Implemented as One Page Design" - It contains the the actual implementation for ReactJS and Webflow — we must have a feedback round somewhere halfway on the prepared design suggestion. The structure of this project would make splitting everything into Milestones a bit cumbersome, because they are either too small or contain way more than needed
• Yes, we include support for polkadot.js

Thanks for the update. I have two follow-up questions: Could you integrate “ReactJS and Webflow” into the specification of the deliverables? Also for feedback, it might be better to ask here for feedback: https://forum.polkadot.network/ instead of just asking the grants team. Teams that actually already have done a crowdloan or are planing to do one might be in a much better position to provide valuable feedback.

For ReactJS and Webflow we already included this in milestone 1 deliverables list in Jamstack implementation in Gatsby (Gatsby is based on React) and separately for Webflow in Webflow implementation. As we would like to prepare 2 separate implementations and let users to choose which one they want to use. Sure, we will consult our designs with the community to get feedback.

Thanks. Could you update the application accordingly? (regarding the community feedback)

We included this information in 1b. part of Milestone 1 description.

@gsieczkowski10clouds I added some follow-up questions to our earlier inline conversations. Feel free to have a look.
