GitHub was launched Sponsors, a new way of support open source developers for GitHub users!

They also lunched the sponsor button on repository page, so I introduce how to set IssueHunt on it.

  1. Go to the repository page on GitHub.
  2. Click “Settings” button.

3. Scroll down to “Features”, check “Sponsorships” and click “Set up sponsor button”.

4. A text editor will appear on the next page and you can edit FUNDING.yml on there.

Paste following text into the editor.

issuehunt: UserName/RepositoryName

Example of Boostnote

Comopleted ✌️

Users can see a “Sponsor” button on your repository!

Make open source sustainable

We are very excited to see a GitHub Sponsors. We are an one team that has passionate about make open source sustainable.

Bounty had a positive impact on OSS communities. Some projects increased the number of a pull request to 6x to 10x after listing it on IssueHunt.

Sometimes we receive feedback from OSS owner telling us “We received a pull request from developer outside our community😊.”
IssueHunt is becoming a place where talented developers meet as well.

Want to boost your OSS project development with IssueHunt?

Add your GitHub repositories to IssueHunt and get help from developers around the world right away.
