Thanks, Fritz! I love the idea of offline events but for now, given the whole pandemic situation around the world, we’re trying to see how we can replicate a lot of that online and give people a good onboarding experience.
You’re right, teaching people to set up basic things like setting up wallets, using dapps etc. is definitely on that list. I’d say that the key challenge is that these resources exist in different places, but hopefully setting up these middleware guilds and community specialists for these channels would ensure that:
- There are knowledgeable people 24/7 to help you get onboarded and suggest steps if you’re stuck.
- These people ensure that the resources are kept up to date- new way to mint NFT, no problem- tutorials have been updated!
The language and region based communities definitely fit into the larger narrative too.
One category that we’re planning for the middleware guilds is Web2 and Web3 developers- so this might contain everything from what a Rust developer can do within the ecosystem to something that Web2 devs can contribute to. And a group of people to guide and mentor them. So @Jloc , if this sounds interesting to you, please do apply! We’d love to get this going soon
