Build Scalable Blockchain Networks and DeFi Solutions

What you'll learn
Learn Rust fundamentals and their application in blockchain development.
Build and optimize Substrate Frame pallets for blockchain ecosystems.
Execute and test blockchain logic using various tools like PolkadotJS and NodeJS.
Apply runtime upgrades, migrations, and optimizations for production-ready blockchains.
Integrate backend systems with blockchain networks using PolkadotJS and NodeJS
Requirements
Basic programming knowledge: Familiarity with any programming language (preferably C, C++,JavaScript, or Python) is recommended.
Understanding of blockchain concepts: Some basic knowledge of blockchain technology and decentralized applications (dApps).
Familiarity with development tools: Experience using command-line tools and version control systems like Git.
Interest in Web3: An understanding or curiosity about Web3, decentralized finance (DeFi), and smart contracts.
Description
Welcome to the Rust course - part of the Web3 Academy Masterclass program! Join Nikola in the course that offers a comprehensive guide to mastering Substrate development with Rust. You will become equipped with the tools to build, test, and deploy custom blockchain networks and decentralized finance (DeFi) solutions. We begin by introducing you to the core principles of Rust programming, essential for writing robust and efficient code in Substrate-based projects. You will progress through creating your own custom pallet, learning about key concepts such as control flow, loops, and how to structure and optimize Rust code for blockchain applications.As the course advances, you will explore more complex topics, including how to write and execute tests for your pallet, benchmark its performance, and handle off chain workers. Off chain workers are particularly vital for handling computationally expensive tasks efficiently without overloading the network. You'll also learn how to perform runtime upgrades and migrations, ensuring your network can evolve without downtime.The course is designed for developers looking to create scalable blockchain networks.Ready to take your blockchain development skills to the next level? Enroll now and start building the future of decentralized technology with hands-on guidance and real-world projects. Dive into the world of Substrate and Rust-your journey to mastering blockchain begins here!
