I can't say what the rest of the community thinks... 🙂but I liked it better when the dev challenges where small and friendly. Now their so big and up there that it excludes a lot of devs.
Yeah, but I think the tutorial challenge is great because anyone can participate and learn. You can document what you learn, which helps reinforce your understanding. It's a way to both learn and contribute.
Definitely, the dapp development challenge is not very beginner-friendly.
Yes. And the high money, makes it very competitive.
Yeah 🤧
This is good feedback. Will definitely Keep this in mind
Thank you!
You might surprise yourself. The Stellar community is really supportive of devs at many levels of experience. The other cool thing is that even if you didn't take a prize out of the hackathon, Stellar has multiple different funding programs to support projects well past the Challenge. Check out SCF
So excited to launch our most ambitious DEV Challenge ever. A huge thank you to Stellar for partnering and making this possible. Can't wait to see what everyone builds!
Hey, so I am working on the tutorial challenge
Do we have to create a website or something, I have an idea to make a website with a few tutorials over it and so can I use each tutorial as a separate entry?
You'd be able to use each tutorial as a separate entry, yes!
Thanks a lot for clarification
Whew, I see we're no longer in the little leagues😅🔥. Can't wait to see what the participants come up with.
Good opportunity to learn about the smart contracts
Is it only me or the linked page is broken and there's no form there? 🙄
Are you still having issues with this @turma ? Let me know- I've seen this a couple times caused by a bad request to Hubspot. I can look into it, but if all fails, then you can submit on this webform.
Mmm... yes, I guess... there's no form on the page (linked in the post) currently at all 😅 unless I'm missing something...
And I get a blank page here... 🙄
@turma are you still having issues now?
Yes, I am unfortunately. I was able to open the form by the direct link provided above when I opened it some time before, but now it seems to be broken for me again, as well as the embedded form on the official challenge page. (I see the same loading state there as before) I dunno, maybe some network/ISP issues, if others can open it perfectly fine. (I just don't get why the direct link did work actually)
Hm okay, @turma feel free to submit to DEV as you normally would and leave a message directly in your submission post that you're having trouble accessing the form on stellar's website. This way, your submission will still be valid.
Thanks a lot ❤️
OK. Looks like I was eventually able to find out what is the problem here. My browser of choice is FireFox, and while the form can easily be opened in Chromium-based browsers, FireFox seem to have hard time with that. I assume it's related to this known HubSpot issue (as you mentioned you use HubSpot forms). FYI @jess, @lief_storer_fff38ed6bd2d2.
Hello.
I am trying to play catch up on the original repo and I am clueless and could seriously use as much help, advice, and guidance as I can get.
I am winging this blind folded with no experience.
Thank in advance!

@cappyoo7 the stellar team has published a few additional resources since this was first announced. Have you seen the intro to stellar livestream?
Intro to Stellar: Get Started in Rust, Set Up Your Development Environment, and Write Your First Smart Contract
Julian Martinez for Stellar Development Foundation ・ Jul 25
Im considering attempting, your post is encouraging 😊. Wish you the best 🙏😊
Gonna be fun as I'm going to learn then just document it as a tutorial for others and my participation will also be done, so one challenge and three benefits.
At some point I thought there was another Frontend Challenge slated to start the same day as this challenge, but now it seems to be missing from the upcoming or current challenges (although its page still exists for Frontend Challenge v24.07.10). Was its original listing a mistake?
@kelseyrh we realized we didn't have the bandwidth to coordinate a new frontend challenge while launching this one, so decided to remove it from this launch cycle. We will have a new frontend challenge for our next launch date on July 24!
Very excited about this one, good luck to everyone participating!
I actually have a question regarding ALL challenges, current, past, and future ones; what we make from them are we able to add them to our portfolio and still have them have weight to them for being a challenge from this community? Asking here because I never heard back from the email I sent and it’s been racking my brain. 😅😅 I’m wanting to utilize them to not only showcase my skills but to also showcase my growth and capabilities.
Also, this looks interesting, definitely going to check out Stellar.
@tiani91 not sure I fully understood your question, but you can definitely showcase your projects from any challenge on your portfolio! That's a great reason to tackle these.
That actually answered it, thank you very much Jess Lee!! Your comment is very much appreciated!!
Whoa, that's really fascinating. I appreciate the details. Visit our website for further information if you need it. Car with driver service in Dubai
Excellent chance to become familiar with smart contracts
Indeed!
Hey, so I am working on the tutorial challenge
Do we have to create a website or something, I have an idea to make a website with a few tutorials over it and then can I use each tutorial as a separate entry?
@ravixalgorithm You could possibly put multiple tutorials in a single post and we can review each tutorial individually - so you don't have to put a bunch of submissions into the webform or in loads of posts on Dev.to.
That said, the upside of having multiple Dev.to posts is that you might be able to implement better SEO for builders that are looking to solve for issues.
Hope that makes sense and looking forward to see what you put together!
The Smart Contract Challenge is something I'm very excited about! Test your abilities, be creative, and have a chance to win a portion of $50,000 in rewards. This is an amazing opportunity. It's the ideal opportunity to learn and show off your skills, regardless of whether you're a developer or just interested in blockchain technology. Let's get started.
Have any of the winners already won the prize? I haven't received any news about it yet.
Hello @jess, we haven't gotten the prize yet
@_0xmorpheus @chielokacodes we sent all winner information to our fulfillment team yesterday to begin the administrative process. It looks like those who opted for PayPal already received their prizes, while those who opted for wire transfers will need to wait a few more days for everything to process. We will be in touch via email if we need more information from you. Thanks for your patience!
Is the prize awarded in cash or some other format?
Rewards are distributed in USD directly from Dev.to
okay, thanks!!
although I have never made an app using smart contracts but it seems very interesting to join
Really exited to participate !!
I'm getting this $50K
Such a good opportunity. Working on it right now 💪🔥
Exited to participate !!
@jess @peter @ben what's the next steps for the winners?
Hey @_0xmorpheus, you should have just received an email from us about prize fulfillment. Congrats again!

i want to send one solution w/ a team of 3 people and another team/idea just w/ me.
@jess @peter @ben
