This technical course dispels the myth that you need to learn Haskell to develop on Cardano. Move beyond a surface-level understanding and explore the technical mechanics that power decentralized applications (DApp) development on a leading proof-of-stake network.
Course overview
Gain a comprehensive understanding of Cardano’s EUTXO model and its advantages over the account-based model.
Understand the typical architecture of a Cardano DApp, including on-chain and off-chain components.
Grasp the evolution of smart contract languages on Cardano, from Plutus to Aiken.
Learn the fundamentals of Aiken to write, build, and test your own on-chain validators.
Outline the next steps for your development journey, with resources for hands-on coding and ecosystem tools.
