Welcome to the Network School.

Apply online at ns.com. Doors open on Sep 23, the day after the Network State Conference in Singapore. Full announcement is below. Oh, and everything we're doing is built on Farcaster.

I look forward to seeing you there!

if you were @balajis.eth, how would *you* build Network School on top of Farcaster (beyond the obvious FID social graph)?

what existing apps, features, tools, frames, etc. would you use? and what not-yet-built apps, features, tools, would you hope NS would prompt?

rounds

/ted | exploring the onchain frontier | surfing @ venice, ca | eating @ gjusta / gjelina

run a dedicated channel powered by /rounds to reward folks for posting updates to their projects. ie perpetually incentivize attention towards a weekly "show and tell". all natively shared on social as a way to bring in new attention, increase serendipity, etc.

Working on something related to letting developers bring their GitHub contributions onchain 🤫

Then we’d know which wallets have made good contributions to major repos.

Any ideas for proof of buidl beyond developers?

I’m just looking forward to reading what all the students ship as part of the daily bounties, right here on Farcaster.

Hackathon recap threads on X do not do these projects justice.

Is the goal of Network School to teach people how to code apps and frames on the network or is it just another Farcaster client?

Translate without leaving any trace @serahloajadeh70 @wryigcsrc

Well she has a point in the last part I mean it is technically true 🫡

why would you tho

may just be a farcaster sign in and then it's a web app/mobile app to do the school things

I’d use Farcaster’s FID social graph for decentralized identity and community building. Integrate tools like rabby for seamless transactions and educational platforms like Gitcoin for funding. Hope to see features like decentralized learning management systems and AI driven course recommendations

i would create an on-chain code of conduct / not be surprised when someone creates an on-chain 'shitty men in crypto' if i didn't

i would use ar/vr for immersive learning experiences, like virtual labs, historical reconstructions, and interactive simulations.

i feel vr is so slept on
