Hey, I'd like to start using a suitable framework for my projects going forward. I'm currently torn between Ape (since I do a lot of coding in Python web3) and Foundry (since it's supposed to be state-of-the-art). What would you recommend?
Hey, I have a problem: I'm currently learning to code, including Solidity. The thing is, I write a lot of test projects, but when I get to a point where I'm stuck because of a lack of experience, I tend to quickly ask an AI, which makes me feel like I'm not really learning properly. I’m aware of the problem now, but I don’t know how else to learn new things without using AI to look things up. Sure, I could just manually look up things I don’t know on the internet, but that takes a lot more time and amounts to the same thing. My question for the more experienced devs here: How did you effectively learned to program back in the day without AI, and what did you do when you got stuck or encountered a bug you couldn’t figure out? What would you recommend as the best way for me to learn with avoiding AI (or should I avoid using AI for learning altogether?)? What’s the alternative to AI for debugging and research?
A question for Web3 developers who have actually worked as developers at relevant companies: What does the actual day-to-day work of a Web3 developer look like? What percentage of the work is *actually* spent writing smart contract code, and what does the rest of the job entail? I would also be grateful for a brief insider's perspective on the current job market.
For anyone interested, the MetaMask Community Call is on Thursday:
