Name the new file after your project: `project_name.md`. 4. Fill out the template with the details of your project. The more information you provide, the faster the review. Please refer to our [Grant guidelines for most popular grant categories](docs/grant_guidelines_per_category.md) and make sure your deliverables present a similar same level of detail. To get an idea of what a strong application looks like, you can have a look at the following examples: [1](https://github.com/Mintbase/Grants-Program/blob/master/applications/project_aurras_mvp_phase_1.md), [2](https://github.com/Mintbase/Grants-Program/blob/master/applications/project_bodhi.md), [3](https://github.com/Mintbase/Grants-Program/blob/master/applications/pontem.md), [4](https://github.com/Mintbase/Grants-Program/blob/master/applications/spartan_poc_consensus_module.md). Naturally, if you're only applying for a smaller grant that only consists of, say, UI work, you don't need to provide as much detail. 5. Once you're done, create a pull request. The pull request should only contain _one new file_—the Markdown file you created from the template.
