A quick list of what has been happening all of the latest development news from the basic materials project.
Its been a minute since weve checked in. SO basically the world has split up into windows development, using unreal engine, blender, ableton, and Adobe creative cloud, max for live, etc so the windows operatibng system.
web3 development has become fully migrated to ubunutu server 25.
So coding has become specialised on ubuutu server (with desktop added). For everything coding and devclopment, wether stand alone apps, appis, blockchain of defie smart contracts, etc basically everything.
In parallel to this all the apps that are software GUIS, so everything mentioned including kiCAD, 3CAD, and those others mentioned, So all of these GUI apps, or windows apps, for jobs and processes and procedures ‘up above’ figuratively speaking are all now on the windows machine. which is an i5 12th gen with rtx 3060 gpu 32gb ram 1tb drive. An ok reasonably priced machine.
And the ubunutu server is on the old dell laptop that we’ve had for years thats used pretty much exclusively for ‘coding’. However due to security reasons and to tighten security with all the attacks on blockchain and crypto this is an exclusively a develop and test environment while we get further into cyfrin and updraft codehawks.
I would say im a fairly confident web3 developer now, but like i didnt know when i got started down this route i expect another year working through the course over on cyfrin updraft, at the moment im about half way through all of the available courses, about 11 out of 34 of the developer badges unlocked, but once again yeah all of twenty six thus far, well keep proceeding along those lines.
As its coming to the endi of the year will tone it down a bit and take it easy but still expect to hit cyfrin updraft on a daily basis.
Little by little step by step peice by peice.. I could say confidently we could launch a defi contract or smart contract however it wouldn’t be at expert level, i would say i self rate myself at an intermediate standard now able to initiate and devlop and test smart contracts securely using etherium, Solana and Hedera HBAr and cardano/algorand, and im confident in my ability to use web3 wallets (both hardware and modules in the web browser) securely.
Thanks to everyone on the various groups, GitHub, tiny-tape out and cyfrin up-draft as well as all those who have contributed time energy and effort into the teaching materials as well as its much appreciated. Special thanks as well to freecode camp who continue to provide solid answers to difficult tech/programming jobs.
