Introduction
Badge system design is rooted in understanding how badges come together to form a system. There are a variety of approaches and we're interested in cataloguing them all here.

This is where you come in: add your use cases, your definitions of terms, your techniques, your questions, etc.
Getting involved
There are several ways to get involved and give feedback on the standard:
- Add your content below!
- Join us for our regular research / system design calls
- Discuss badge system design on the Open Badges list
- Use the #badgesys hashtag
