Bus factor

What is Bus factor?

It is basically a number of most active contributors responsible for 80% of contributions.

Bus factor tries to assess "What happens if a key member of the team is hit by a bus?". The more there are key members, the lower the risk.

The zcash/halo2 repository has a bus factor of 3.

High risk, a lot of knowledge concentrated in a few people

Bus factor was measured on 14 Aug 2024

Summary of zcash/halo2

The zcash/halo2 repository is a Rust library for creating and verifying proofs in the Halo 2 zero-knowledge proof system. Halo 2 is a flexible and efficient technique for verifiable computation. This repository implements the entire protocol, including a high-level system for expressing arithmetic circuit computations. The main purpose of the Halo Infinite Protocol is to improve crypto performance.

According to the GitHub repository, here are some of the main features of the zcash/halo2 system:

No trusted setup
Recursive zero-knowledge proofs
Can efficiently verify batched proofs

The repository includes instruction on how to use and contribute to the zcash/halo2 library. It is part of the Zcash project, which means it has potential applications in privacy-preserving digital currencies. However, it can also be used in any scenario where efficient zero-knowledge proofs are required.

For actual development, the repository is well maintained and updated regularly. It is an open-source repository, meaning anyone with a good understanding of the project can contribute.

However, remember that to contribute to this repository you must follow their contribution guidelines, which include an official code of conduct.
