Detailed Plan
I N T R O D U C T IO N
Members of the Cardano community are creatives, doers and visionaries. They don't want to just show up they want to make a difference. We cannot nurture and grow the communities if they are held back by an unnecessary digital divide that separates technology experts from non-tech visionaries.
Everyday I meet creative people eager to roll up their sleeves and write application on Cardano but they are blocked because they are not programmers or engineers.
Let's introduce build communities around the ideas of Citizen Development and No-Code Hackathons.

Citizen Developers are are people with little to no knowledge of programming who build software using No-Code platforms like QModeler. The advent of No-Code has created a sea change in the way software is developed by allowing Citizen Developers to build software and communities to work collaboratively to create software solutions to problems. Citizen Developer is a new term to describe someone who is participating in building software products despite having little or no technical knowledge.The growth of Citizen development is estimated to be 30% per year will overtake programming development in the next 3 years.

No-Code hackathons are long running events, 3-6 month or even longer, that brings people of all backgrounds together together around the task of creating software to solve a problem. We hope to soon use No-Code hackathons to include Plutus smart contracts using QModeler. Follow the progress of no-code hackathons at <https://www.cardanonocode.com>

We believe technology should unite and not divide us. We strive to democratize technology by simplifying it so that innovation happens across all strata of society. Our vision will be realized when any sized company, from enterprise to a small business owner, or even a single person with a yen to create, can innovate solutions to their problems. Ferdon - the maker of Qmodeler is its located in Vietnam. QModeler is a supporter of the Vietnam National Computer Olympic Team where many of our team members of competed.
Ferdon is a company of currently 20 people passionate about democratizing technology. Ferdon has been working 3 and a half years to build our flagship product, QModeler, one of the first no-code platforms and the first no-code platform for blockchain. QModeler is capable of synthesizing models into smart contracts.
Ferdon is launching the first of its kind, no-code hackathons, long running events that bring together communities to solve pressing issues using No-Code tools.
Ferdon's active projects include
- In collaboration with WADA we have launched a first of its kind no-code hackathon to develop a solution for food safety traceability in Africa.
- Launching a no-code hackathon in Vietnam to develop a solution to food traceability in Vietnam.

Start No-Code Hackathons to crowed source the worlds most pressing issues.
- Sustainability
- Food Safety
- Cold-Chain
- Access to Markets
- Local Food Supply Chains to Feed the Hungry
These are not ordinary supply chains they
- Unlimited in the number of participants
- Non-Techies building on no-code platforms
- May run for months even years
- Produce full working applications
Several No-Code projects are already running funded from a proposal in F5. You can check the site https://www.cardanonocode.com for more information.
