What are badges? 
Badges are achievement-based rewards that recognize your engagement on Builder Center. Earned through yours actions, they are a record of your builder journey in the community. Whether you're publishing articles, commenting on posts, or maintaining a visit streak, there's a badge for you. 
How do you earn badges? 
You earn badges from first-time moments like your first comment or first article, from consistency through 7-, 30-, or 90-day visitor streaks, and from the impact your content has when it starts conversations, earns likes, or helps others learn. Whatever your level of participation in Builder Center, there's a badge for it. 
Where can I see the badges? 
Your earned badges are displayed on your public profile, visible to anyone who visits. When you view your  own profile , you can see all available badges and your progress toward earning each badge. 
Get started today!
