Cardano ability to build a DAPP
Not open for building a dApp myself but, I might tinker around with one of the backends - eg here is one for python that includes an example: https://github.com/cffls/pycardano

[PyCardano] A Cardano library in Python
There you go: https://github.com/cffls/pycardano/tree/main/examples/full_stack. A full stack example that allows users to send ADA to multiple addresses in one transaction using PyCardano + Nami wallet.
Please allow me to introduce you PyCardano, a Cardano library written in Python. It allows users to create and sign transactions without depending on third-party Cardano serialization tools, such as cardano-cli and cardano-serialization-lib, making it a lightweight library, which is simple and fast to set up in all types of environments.

Steel Man Why Cardano Fails
I hate Haskell a lot. I'm really optimistic for projects like Helios.

What are the most exciting initiatives going on right now to improve the Cardano developer experience?
One of the most exciting projects imo is Helios. If Cardano is to compete with other smart blockchains, we must move away from Haskell. I consider Plutus (Tx) being Haskell-based to be a serious design flaw of Cardano's developer experience. Plutus itself is inefficient and poorly thought out. Plutarch is much more well designed, even though it's still Haskell based.
