pycardano VS plutus-pioneer-program

And some good tools for off chain code: - https://lucid.spacebudz.io/ - https://github.com/Python-Cardano/pycardano

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

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.

If you want an easy entry into Plutus and Cardano smart contracts take a look at https://demeter.run/ and plutus pioneer program cohort 4 content

and the course materials, including assignments and HW are updated weekly here: https://github.com/input-output-hk/plutus-pioneer-program

Step Three: learn Plutus. Check out the Plutus Pioneer Program.

GitHub repo

There's a little more to it than cloning an existing repo and installing it somewhere. I think the very first thing you should do is go through the pioneers program. https://github.com/input-output-hk/plutus-pioneer-program
