Compute Donation Page

Compute Donation Page is a practical guide for ai & compute in regenerative communities. Compute Donation lets users opt into donating idle CPU cycles through an isolated Web Worker while keeping the browser responsive.

What is Compute Donation Page?

Consent-first Web Worker compute for BOINC/Cocoon-style workloads. This guide covers when to use it, the best first action, best practices, common mistakes, and concrete next steps.

When to Use

When plugged into power
When the user explicitly consents
When tab visibility and battery are safe
When demonstrating ethical browser compute

Best First Action

Hover to read the consent explanation, then choose Low or Medium intensity before starting.

Purpose

Compute Donation lets users opt into donating idle CPU cycles through an isolated Web Worker while keeping the browser responsive.

When to Use

When plugged into power
When the user explicitly consents
When tab visibility and battery are safe
When demonstrating ethical browser compute

Best First Action

Hover to read the consent explanation, then choose Low or Medium intensity before starting.

Best Practices

Never auto-start compute.
Stop when battery is low or the user leaves.
Expose live stats.
Use workers, never main-thread loops.

Common Mistakes

Starting compute without consent.
Running high intensity on battery.
Claiming BOINC/Cocoon integration is live before real project backends are wired.

Next Steps

Open Community compute tab.
Review BOINC/Gridcoin links.
Log compute sessions for transparency.
