I'm being boosted, so I will take this opportunity to introduce myself: I'm a passionate crypto software developer. I enjoy coding, maths and visual arts. I'm especially interested in zero knowledge atm (I wrote circom-lsp out of frustration) gm/gn <3

What languages/plaftorms/chains do you develop with as a crypto developer? I looked at Solidity a while back but didn’t get far with it. But I also didn’t have a good project to work on, and that’s how I learn best.

I mainly work with solidity + foundry, but I have dipped my toe a bit in other technologies as well. After solidity the most prominent one is circom, a zkSNARK DSL About having a project: It's important to find something really fun even if it's a bit hard and even if it means you'll get stuck with it for a while. For solidity, I'll recommend doing the cryptozombies course, and after that here are some ideas you could develop: - fully on-chain NFTs (solidity code that generates html/svg) - Some kind of gambling game with chainlink - Some kind of on-chain game replication (e.g. chess) - Any AVS (research eigenlayer and shared security) You could of course also develop something generic like an NFT marketplace but that's a bit disheartening to start with imo

Thanks for that informative response! The on-chain NFTs would probably be a good project for me to dive into one day! I've also had the inclination to get into generative art so it would be good to make my own contracts like that. Agreed that an NFT marketplace would be a tough one, thought I've had ideas about what would be better options than what we have now for a long time from the perspective of both an artist and a collector of art (vs a collector/investor of collectibles/tokens). Maybe one day when I retire I can focus on that, lol!
