Sponsors

JHipster uses Open Collective to gather money. This money is used to cover project expenses (like running this website) in a transparent way (See the Open Collective documentation), and your donation will help the project live and grow successfully.

Please go to our Open Collective page to become a backer or a sponsor.

Benefits of being a backer​

Backers donate $2 per month to the project, and get the following benefits:

  • Visibility on the front page of https://www.jhipster.tech in the "backers" section (about 110,000 views/month on January, 2018).
  • Visibility on the GitHub main project page in the "backers" section (about 15,000 views/month on January, 2018).

Benefits of being a bronze sponsor​

Bronze sponsors donate $100 per month to the project, and get the following benefits:

  • Visibility on the front page of https://www.jhipster.tech in the "sponsors" section (about 110,000 views/month on January, 2018).
  • Visibility on the GitHub main project page in the "sponsors" section (about 15,000 views/month on January, 2018).

Benefits of being a silver sponsor​

There is a limit to 10 silver sponsors.

Silver sponsors donate $500 per month to the project, and get the following benefits:

  • Same benefits as bronze sponsors (visibility on main pages).
  • "Thank you" tweet from @jhipster.
  • The ability to create 1 "bug bounty" every month, non transferable. If that bug bounty is not created by the end of the month, it is lost.

Benefits of being a gold sponsor​

There is a limit to 3 gold sponsors.

Gold sponsors donate $1,000 per month to the project, and get the following benefits:

  • Same benefits as silver sponsors (visibility on main pages, and thank you tweet).
  • The ability to create 3 "bug bounties" every month, non transferable. If all bug bounties are not created by the end of the month, the remaining ones are lost.
  • Company logos on all https://www.jhipster.tech page footers (about 550,000 views/month on January, 2018).

Benefits of being a platinum sponsor​

There is a limit to only 1 platinum sponsor.

The Platinum sponsor donates $2,500 per month to the project, and gets the following benefits:

  • Same benefits as gold sponsors (visibility on all pages, thank you tweet, 3 bug bounties).
  • Visibility on JHipster Online, with a logo on the welcome page, and on the main page to generate applications.
  • A message to add at the end of each generation. This message will need to be submitted as a PR by the sponsor and will be on each release published during the sponsorship period.
  • The option to add a custom JHipster logo in the official logo list. This logo will be submitted as a PR by the sponsor and will be in the JHipster official logo list. It will need to comply with JHipster's code of conduct.
  • A reserved slot for each JHipster conference organized by the JHipster Developers Association. For organizational reasons, those slots will be reserved starting 3 months after the initial sponsorship payment and will be available until 3 months after the last sponsorship payment.

What will the project do with the money?​

As you can read in the OpenCollective documentation, the way your money will be used will be public and totally transparent.

Anyone can file an expense. If the expense makes sense for the development of the community, it will be "merged" in the ledger of our open collective by the core contributors and the person who filed the expense will be reimbursed.

Money will first be used to cover direct project costs:

  • Bug bounties
  • Website hosting
  • Developer tooling
  • Legal protection

Then, money will be used to:

  • Pay for project goodies
  • Pay Meetup fees
  • Pay expenses for developer gatherings: travel & food expenses for core team meetings
