# Individual Developers

Welcome to the IoTeX **Developer Grants**, a key component of the newly restructured Halo Grants Program. These grants are targeted at individual developers with diverse skill sets and backgrounds to explore, create, and innovate within the [IoTeX ecosystem](https://ecosystem.iotex.io/).

Developer Grants have three distinct tiers: the *Learner*, *Explorer*, and *Builder*. Each tier is designed to support individual developers in their learning journey, and offer funds that are proportionate to the dev's skills level, user base, and quality of the content created. By successfully completing a tier, developers will earn a **Soul Bound Token (SBT)**, signifying their accomplishments and expertise.&#x20;

By providing essential resources, mentorship, and financial support, we aim to help developers realize their full potential, graduate to become "IoTeX Builders", and contribute to the long-term success of the IoTeX developer community.

{% hint style="info" %}
NOTE: Not all grants submissions are successful, but that should not discourage you in any way. We will take approximately 2 weeks to reply to your submission. **Only the successful submissions will receive a reply.**&#x20;
