One of the promises of Web3 is openness, composability, and interoperability at the application layer. A paradigm where open-source software and tooling enable others to contribute to projects they find valuable, while the projects offer transparency by publicly hosting their codebases. Another Web3 initiative is providing on-chain proof of contributions—the ability to prove that you can do the things you say you’ve done.

One company that embodies these Web3 principles is Truffle. Not only is most of its tooling open source so anyone can contribute, but they also provide POAPs for those who do.
