As part of the [NSF Engineering & Research Center for Quantum Networks](https://cqn-erc.org/) we are building out a number of open source packages for Quantum Information Science. Those include tools for [full-stack network simulation](https://github.com/QuantumSavory/QuantumSavory.jl), [modeling of Clifford circuits and error correction](https://github.com/QuantumSavory/QuantumClifford.jl), and [a small computer algebra system for quantum algebra](https://github.com/QuantumSavory/QuantumSymbolics.jl).

We are now running an ongoing bounties and small grants program, with project awards in the $200 to $3000 range. Our goal is three-fold:

- providing opportunities for new researchers
- building community
- building better software tools

**If you want to participate and win bounties or small grants, join us on our issue tracker.**

Here you can see more details about the logistics and a [master list of bounties](https://github.com/QuantumSavory/.github/blob/main/BUG_BOUNTIES.md). Or you can see the per-project bounties and mini grants:

- [bounties in `QuantumSavory.jl`](https://github.com/QuantumSavory/QuantumSavory.jl/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+label%3A%22bug+bounty%22)
- [bounties in `QuantumClifford.jl`](https://github.com/QuantumSavory/QuantumClifford.jl/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+label%3A%22bug+bounty%22)
- [bounties in `QuantumSymbolics.jl`](https://github.com/QuantumSavory/QuantumSymbolics.jl/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+label%3A%22bug+bounty%22)

Moreover, we are open to funding your own independent proposals, if we believe they would be of use to our mission.
