Our great sponsors
  • SurveyJS - Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • solana

    Web-Scale Blockchain for fast, secure, scalable, decentralized apps and marketplaces.

  • Bitcoin and Ethereum are the two biggest blockchains in existence, but others like Solana and Cardano are slowly catching up. There are hundreds of decentralized apps, aka dapps, already deployed on Ethereum, and building on the blockchain is getting easier by the minute. It is by far the most secure decentralized architecture.

  • opensea-js

    TypeScript SDK for the OpenSea marketplace

  • Tokens can also be sent directly from one user to another. No more relying on Google to give you your YouTube earnings, or directing your audience to Patreon so they can donate - users can directly 'tip' you a token if they like your content. There are also the famous NFTs, which, sorry Chris, do not let you "own a piece of the internet". NFTs are tokens too, but they are not equal in value to each other. While owning an OG token is like owning a dollar, owning an NFT is more like owning a painting. All dollars are equal in value, but not all paintings are equal in value. NFTs are each unique, and they're pretty cool - check out OpenSea if you're interested in getting into it.

  • SurveyJS

    Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App. With SurveyJS form UI libraries, you can build and style forms in a fully-integrated drag & drop form builder, render them in your JS app, and store form submission data in any backend, inc. PHP, ASP.NET Core, and Node.js.

  • metamask-extension

    :globe_with_meridians: :electric_plug: The MetaMask browser extension enables browsing Ethereum blockchain enabled websites

  • It's super easy to start your own journey into web3, and you can get involved today by installing Metamask, a browser extension to make your browser compatible with blockchain apps. If you're a developer interested in getting into the web3 space, I cannot recommend Nader Dabit's content enough.

  • go-livepeer

    Official Go implementation of the Livepeer protocol

  • Most apps you use are still web2. The majority of dapps out there are purely for finance, like trading crypto or buying and selling NFTs. But we're getting there, and web3 is already beginning to expand into huge industries, like music, video streaming, and even gaming.

  • ethereum-org-website

    Ethereum.org is a primary online resource for the Ethereum community.

  • Bitcoin and Ethereum are the two biggest blockchains in existence, but others like Solana and Cardano are slowly catching up. There are hundreds of decentralized apps, aka dapps, already deployed on Ethereum, and building on the blockchain is getting easier by the minute. It is by far the most secure decentralized architecture.

  • cardano-node

    The core component that is used to participate in a Cardano decentralised blockchain.

  • Bitcoin and Ethereum are the two biggest blockchains in existence, but others like Solana and Cardano are slowly catching up. There are hundreds of decentralized apps, aka dapps, already deployed on Ethereum, and building on the blockchain is getting easier by the minute.

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
