Web3 is here to stay, and education will be an even bigger driver of bringing new people into the space. Especially in terms of development and user onboarding, more and more people are starting to experiment with DAO contributions and learning.
Web3 education represents a paradigm shift between Web 2.0 and Web 3.0 regarding the way we learn and motivate.
These categories and programs lead the field of education. Continue its growth by thinking about new coordination, mechanism design, and motivation to learn.
DAO
Collaborative Decentralized Autonomous Organization (DAO), where many internet strangers come together to work towards a common goal. In these examples, they focus on growing the Web3 developer community and helping each other.
EthernautsDAO: A public commodity DAO designed to convert developers into Ethereum developers. DeveloperDAO: A community of builders who believe in collective ownership of the internet. BuildGuild: A forkable secondary funding and reward system that encourages pseudo-anonymous developers to coordinate around a series of ad hoc projects or tasks. Optilisitic Labs: A community of engineers and educators that runs a "finishing school" for experienced Web2 engineers.
tool
These are open source tools that help developers create the Ethereum development tools they need.
Open Zeppelin: Security products for building, automating and operating decentralized applications. ScaffoldETH: Quickly experiment with Solidity with a frontend that adapts to your smart contracts. Create-Eth-App: Create an Ethereum-powered application with one command. Hardhat: An Ethereum development environment for professionals. Truffle: A suite for smart contract developers.
game
Learning through interactive games and interfaces is always more fun.
CryptoZombies: Interactive school that teaches you all about blockchain technology. Ethernauts: A Web3/solidity based war game, inspired by http://overthewire.org, playable in the Ethereum Virtual Machine.
