I am extending the invitation to all the caffeine lovers in the community to collaborate and share what you have learned.
Introducing ViBrew– a caffeine AI community blog to get people excited about building their own web applications and help them to avoid some of the pain points in their journey.
Learn– Browse articles. Learn from tips and tricks discovered by others.
Contribute– Submit your own articles. Share your knowledge with the community. Set up your optional “tip jar” with external ICP wallet address. Valuable contributions may receive “tips” from readers.
Collaborate– Comment on articles, support your fellow community members.
Help us build the foundations of the self writing Internet. Let’s start building the caffeine community.
My recent launch of ViBrew has garnered reasonable reception aligned with my expectations (zero). I want to expand this project, but I cannot do it alone.
The goal of this project is to for contributors to come together and combine their shared experience to make all of us better. The better apps caffeine users can make, the better chance for ICP to perform well.
The target audience of this project is not Developers or people who know how to code. The demographic I’m looking to capture is the tech enthusiasts who are just excited to see things work, but have no clue how anything works technically. I believe individuals in this community are well equipped to contribute to this project.
So I’m going to provide Incentive:
Through the end of September, ViBrew will reward new contributors in the following way.
Approved Article - 1 ICP
Every article that is submitted (and approved), will receive a minimum 1 ICP donation to the authors tip jar.
WebTree Loves It Bonus - 1 ICP
Articles that I found particularly interesting/useful receive a 1 ICP bonus donation.
Gold Article - 8 ICP
My favorite article that is submitted will receive a 8 ICP bonus.
Silver Article - 4 ICP
My second favorite article will receive a 4 ICP bonus.
Bronze Article - 2 ICP
Third place
Prizes are cumulative, so it is possible a WebTree Loves it, Gold Article, and Special Bounty are all earned by the same article for a grand total of 20 ICP!

I reserve the right to reject articles for any reason, including me running out of spare change. but here are a few that will certainly be rejected:
AI generated content - I want the site to read as if a human is speaking (I know irony).
Affiliate links
Lack of polish
I am Unable to follow and reproduce results described in article
Maximum of 3 submissions per contributor.
In order to receive donations you must set up your tip jar! This is the only way I can guarantee users are paired correctly to their wallet address.
Recommendation: Create a brand new wallet address in your dApp of choice to use as your tip jar.
I will try to publish the winners in the first week of October!
Updates: The deep link bounty has been rescinded, because i solved the problem. Sorry about that.
But theres a bigger problem. Im giving away ICP and not enough of you are submitting articles. Currently ZanderBander600 is poised to take home the gold medal uncontested.
I see that many of you registered to the site in my admin panel. I even see some of you started a draft and just didnt click to submit it. Maybe you thought, “this isnt good enough” or something silly like that. Your article is good! Share it with the community this is how we all learn and get better.
You have until OCT 1 to be eligible for the prize donation incentives! Dont wait!
If you have a caffeine site, and youre struggling to share content you have on individual site pages, because you get 404 errors, this article is a must read.
Just wanted to say thanks and job-well-done to @WebTreeSoftwareSolut for building ViBrew. It’s a great way to share advice and learn best practices related to Caffeine. Kudos for building and maintaining it.
