Summary

Registration is open for the 2022 Solana Blockchain Developer Bootcamp, sponsored by Chainlink, aimed at both seasoned blockchain developers and newcomers to Web3 who want to explore the Solana ecosystem. This free, global virtual event offers two tracks and covers a range of topics including an overview of Solana's architecture, the Rust programming language, the fundamentals of smart contract development, and the use of Chainlink Data Feeds for creating hybrid smart contracts. Solana's appeal lies in its high throughput, low transaction costs, and use of popular programming languages like Rust and C++, attracting thousands of developers. The bootcamp aims to provide participants with a solid foundation in Solana and Chainlink, enabling them to build secure, feature-rich smart contracts that integrate real-world data and off-chain computation. By the end, developers will be equipped with the skills to write, deploy, and interact with Solana smart contracts, and utilize Chainlink's decentralized oracle networks for accessing off-chain data, supporting the growing demand for skilled developers in the expanding Solana ecosystem.
