Visualizing backend learnings is difficult. I was brainstorming over the last week how could I make the entire eBook where you build the blockchain from scratch more... "user friendly".

So I created this MVP tutorial and would love to hear your feedback on it. Is this a good step forward? Would you like to see more tutorials like this and with more steps?

What would you add?

The goal of this project, tutorial is to re-implement major blockchain components from specific implementations such as Bitcoin/Ethereum/XRP while documenting how to do it step-by-step.

In the next days/weeks I will add more blockchain concepts, components and improve the integration tests because they were coded in rush.

Give it a try this weekend and have fun doing so!

Hi, sorry what do you mean by Facebook already being an open platform?

I am extremely disappointed to see how social platforms are failing the current moral crisis. In this post above I explain why and what can we do about it.

Help me spread the word and let's rebuild them: https://twitter.com/Web3Coach/status/1267802413848723459

Thanks for reading it. I would like to understand why do you says so? There is AT LEAST: banking + supply chains + online identity. Which is already a significant percentage from all businesses out there.

I know developers love to criticize blockchain for various reasons, but the blockchain is here to stay. If without any other use-case, it will definitely at least revolutionize the banking and financial sector still running on 40 years old infrastructure powered by CSV files and FTP.

I went from doing PHP/Java for seven years to now Go and Blockchain.

I want to share my story with you - hoping to change your perception about blockchain technology by at least a bit from the pure technical/programming passion perspective.
