2. Wait for a maintainer to review your request.
3. Contribute the bounty amount to Capawesome on Open Collective.
4. Comment on the issue to confirm that you have contributed the bounty amount and share the URL of the donation (e.g. https://opencollective.com/capawesome/contributions/568776).
5. Wait for a maintainer to assign the bounty label to the issue.
