Introducing the new ethereum.org developer portal

Hello, this is the Ethereum community! We last spoke on August 5th. how are you? We’re here to talk about something new we’ve launched.

You’ve probably already noticed. but we new developer part time job. For a long time, this content was a wall of links to products that could be helpful when building a Dapp. We provided very little context and left much of it up to you to connect the dots. We thought we could do better.

Technical information about Ethereum is often fragmented, which can be a barrier to new developers trying to get their bearings.

Understanding Ethereum development can feel like racing uphill against waves of old Stack Exchange threads and Medium articles. Or perhaps you have to wade through dark abyss, scouring cryptocurrency Twitter for useful information.

So we set out to create an updatable repository of helpful developer content, including:

• Learn more about Ethereum
• code experiment
• Understanding the dapp’s technology stack

And perhaps more importantly, we wanted this to be a place for community collaboration. Anyone can submit a PR to help us improve and maintain our content. We’ve already seen a fantastic willingness from the community to get involved and help improve our documentation. That’s really cool.

In other words, we wanted to create. MDN For Ethereum. And leverage our fantastic pool of translators to help educate on a global scale.

we are ethereum.org The team doesn’t have all the answers, but as a community we’re amazing at sharing our wisdom. Now we have a place to do this.

• The better we categorize the projects we list and adding more filtering options will make it easier for you to choose the right tool.

• Get more contributors to help make the article as useful as possible.

Most of these ideas came from usability tests we ran with amazing members and potential members of the Ethereum community. A big thank you to them!.
