I am asking for funding for the recently published [Polkadot Next.js Starter](https://github.com/niklasp/polkadot-nextjs-starter) which I recently published and that I want to continue working on.

The starter template will allow frontend developers to quickly craft frontend applications for their projects and get started quickly in hackathons. I believe that it can greatly enable new and seasond developers to get started building apps on Polkadot. 

## Existing Features
- Wallet connection components with 
- Next.js 15.x: A React framework for server-side rendering and static site generation.
- Polkadot API: Integration with Polkadot's JavaScript API for blockchain interactions.
- Tailwind CSS 4.0: Utility-first CSS framework for responsive design.
- shadcn ui: Accessible UI components for building modern interfaces.
- React Query: Data-fetching library for managing server state.
- Next Themes: Theme management for light and dark modes.

The twitter post has gained some traction with 4500 views 65 likes and 16 reposts which clearly shows interest in the eco. It was already picked up by [@inscnt for a XCM contract calls](https://x.com/inscnt/status/1904768418584129758).

## Planned Development
- Integration into [`create-polkadot-app`](https://github.com/paritytech/create-polkadot-dapp)
- fixing not working nova integration
- add subwallet integration
- add top menu that that works on mobile

## Cost Breakdown
(at a hourly rate of 100USD)
- 8h retroactive funding for initial development of the app
- 16h planed features above

Propose and approve a spend of treasury funds.

## Dispatch Origin

Must be [`Config::SpendOrigin`] with the `Success` value being at least
`amount` of `asset_kind` in the native asset. The amount of `asset_kind` is converted
for assertion using the [`Config::BalanceConverter`].

## Details

Create an approved spend for transferring a specific `amount` of `asset_kind` to a
designated beneficiary. The spend must be claimed using the `payout` dispatchable within
the [`Config::PayoutPeriod`].

### Parameters
- `asset_kind`: An indicator of the specific asset class to be spent.
- `amount`: The amount to be transferred from the treasury to the `beneficiary`.
- `beneficiary`: The beneficiary of the spend.
- `valid_from`: The block number from which the spend can be claimed. It can refer to
  the past if the resulting spend has not yet expired according to the
  [`Config::PayoutPeriod`]. If `None`, the spend can be claimed immediately after
  approval.

## Events

Emits [`Event::AssetSpendApproved`] if successful.

- **Problem Statement:** Seeking funding for the Polkadot Next.js Starter template to enhance frontend development for Polkadot projects.
