F6: Developer ecosystem
How can we create a positive developer experience that helps the developer focus on building successful apps?
Zimbabwe Developers for Cardano
Solution: Bring local Zimbabwe devs on a discovery journey of the Cardano protocol through hackathons, training and dApp design.
Visual DAO Framework
<p>DAO simulation & visualization is not accessible.</p>
Visual Blockchain Designer/Explorer
<p>No tool exists on the Cardano network to visually communicate smart contracts or explore the blockchain</p>
Tutorchain.io - Cardano use case
<p>Finding an expert or monetizing your expertise requires centralized vetting services that limit your choices and control your access.</p>
True limitations of the Marlowe
<p>Find the true limitations of the Marlowe smart contract system such that a developer will know when and where they must use Plutus.</p>
Treasury for Mini-Proposals
<p>Proposers are discouraged to work on small ideas and improvements using the current Project Catalyst funding model</p>
Transaction editor to replace cli
<p>cardano-cli is cumbersome as transaction complexity grows. Bash scripts (ugly) provide limited editing and documentation capabilities</p>
Testnet support for API [NFT-MAKER]
<p>When onboarding developers to NFT-MAKER PRO, they have to spend real ADA to test the API.</p>
StorJ for NFT storage [NFT-MAKER]
<p>Almost all of the NFTs on Cardano are currently completely dependent on the IPFS network, we need alternative options.</p>
SOLID Software Development Projects
<p>Developers and clients want to work successfully together, but making agreements or payments internationally is complicated.</p>
Software as a Service for Cardano
<p>Developers need to deploy infrastructure to communicate with Cardano. This time-consuming and costly task stops the development of new ideas</p>
Rust Cardano Networking Crate
<p>Current implementation of Cardano Node provides core infrastructure only in Haskell, which is hard to integrate for many developers.</p>
Retroactive Project Funding SDK Quick Pitch
<p>Project Catalyst & SoFi DApps must leverage treasuries while funding innovation. Building robust market mechanisms to do that is difficult.</p>
Reach POC on Cardano
<p>New devs face 3 problems: developer lockout, component consistency, and high cost of correctness when choosing to develop on blockchain</p>
Ranking projects built on cardano
<p>Lack of a plateform where investors can find the best projects built on cardano and where the entrepreneurs can go to raise additional funds</p>
Prediction Outcome Verification
<p>Prediction outcomes for resolving smart contracts often rely on centralized data sources, non-experts & those with conflicting incentives.</p>
Plutus PAB Typescript SDK
Solution: Indigo Labs will design and develop a Typescript SDK that allows developers to interact with PAB and ChainIndex services, vital for dApps.
Plutus Integration with Pony Lang
<p>Some Cardano-based projects could benefit from the use of an actor model language with similar guarantees as Haskell. Scalability by design.</p>
People Centred Design = less risk
<p>Knowing how to code is not enough. Understanding the experience layer, the intent behind code is vital for user adoption& product market fit</p>
Orcfax: trustworthy Cardano oracles
<p>Smart contract developers need reliable real-world facts but there are no standards-based Cardano oracles providing authentic information.</p>
Open-source ISO Toolkit
<p>ISO or ISPO (Initial Stake Pool Offering) is one of the best ways to raise funds, but there aren't any tools to do it efficiently yet.</p>
No-Code Smart Contracts
<p>The power and joy of building Cardano apps is only available to the less than 0.001% of the population familiar with programming</p>
NFT Payment Option
<p>The price of ADA drastically increasing after you purchase a NFT with ADA.</p>
NFT API window
<p>How do you communicate with someone you only know the wallet address of?</p><p><br></p><p>One idea is send a note as NFT. What if an NFT was a chat window!!</p>
