Dear community,
With the aim of supporting ecosystem developers, I'm presenting this treasury proposal for "Substrate in Bits", a series of in-depth technical content focused on addressing the pain points of developers building with Substrate.
This proposal has been up for discussion for 9 days here
The goal is to provide valuable and comprehensive resources that can help developers understand their code better as well as serve as a trusted reference for developers seeking to gain an in-depth understanding of how their codes work.
Each article in the series will be written with the goal of providing detailed information and practical examples with the ultimate goal of serving as a trusted reference for the common problems logged on Substrate media platforms like the StackExchange, Polkadot Discord server, Substrate Matrix channel, etc.
By breaking down complex Substrate concepts into “bits” that are easy to understand and implement, we aim to make it easy for developers to gain a deeper understanding of their code and be able to make proper changes when things go wrong.

Available solutions
There are some existing solutions for substrate-related resources (Including the Substrate documentation and Blockchain training Alliance course) and some are in the works (eg, Polkadot.study). But a key different between "Substrate in Bits" and these solutions is that the technical content in “Substrate in Bits” are not designed to be specific courses. Instead, they’re designed to address specific issues often faced by developers.
A key component of addressing these issues and creating technical content, is consulting with experts and getting their opinion (this is a core component of our research process).

Proposed solution
This proposal aims to tackle the existing problems by:
By compiling these information in one easily accessible location, developers can more quickly and effectively troubleshoot their code and gain a deeper understanding of Substrate's technical components.
This will not only save developers time and effort but making the content open-source on Github contribute to the growth and success of the Substrate ecosystem by encouraging greater participation and collaboration.

Scope of work and Deliverables
The key deliverable for this proposal is 40 pieces of "Substrate in Bits" content. Priorities will ultimately be given to issues that are logged more often on substrate channels and the stackexchange and have less available solutions. These pieces of content will be housed on Github
Other efforts that are not part of the key deliverable include:

Original discussion can be found here
SubSquare is proposing a project called "Substrate in Bits" to help developers building with Substrate.
The project will provide valuable and comprehensive resources that can help developers understand their code better and serve as a trusted reference for developers seeking to gain an in-depth understanding of how their codes work.
The technical content in “Substrate in Bits” will address specific issues often faced by developers and will be housed on GitHub to allow for contributions from the community.
The key deliverable for this proposal is 40 pieces of "Substrate in Bits" content, and the success criteria include reaching 100 developers, having 30-50% of developers participate in the living survey, and having over 70% of readers find the content helpful and satisfactory.
