How I evaluated the subgraph for phase 2.

To complete Phase 2:

Today I will tell you what I paid attention to.

  1. Open the mail and find 5 subgraphs that you need to rate:

2. https://thegraph.com/explorer/subgraph/Next, you need to enter after / username of the subgraph / project name.

3.We immediately pay attention to whether there is a link to the github. Since a subgraph is a technical tool and the absence of a github indicates weak intentions.

I highlighted with red squares what you should pay attention to: in which network the subgraph was created, the date of creation of the subgraph, when was the last change of the subgraph, the number of entities. Scheme, how many entities the schema contains and what parameters they contain.

4. Next, we go to the github. The files are important for us there:

readme-In this file, conscientious developers write what is the meaning of the subgraph, if the file is missing or empty, you will have to understand deeper.

subgraph.yaml-it contains the addresses of the contracts and the events they execute.

schema.graphql -this contains all the dependencies your subgraph contains.

Then you can see the icon of the author of the file creator on the github, see additional information about nm, what he does.

The data of points 3 and 4 can be indicated in the question in the form:Mission 2: Subgraph 1: How would you describe what the subgraph does?

5. Go to the site and instead of the ID, specify the one that is indicated on the site of the graph ipfs.io/ipfs/ID

Block 1- shows all entities

Block 2 -shows events.

Block 3 -contains the name of the contract and the address of the contract.

All data in point 5 can be recorded in the form in the question. Mission 2: Subgraph 1: Identify the degree of completeness, complexity and accuracy of the implementation.

Finally Having completed all the points in these questions, you can already answer yourself.

Good luck to all curators.
