About this Event

Substrate is an open-source modular framework for building blockchains, and is the backbone of the upcoming Polkadot network. Learn to build a custom Blockchain during this live working session with Parity Technologies.

Shawn Tabrizi from Parity Technologies will walk you through the end-to-end process for setting up your working environment, going through the basics of runtime development, and finally building a game from the ground up.

By the end of this workshop, you will have all the tools and knowledge needed to build a custom blockchain using Substrate!

Prerequisites: Please install and setup substrate as described here: https://substrate.dev/docs/en/getting-started/installing-substrate

Substrate is written using a new programming language called Rust. If you are unfamiliar with Rust, that is okay! However, we recommend reviewing at least the first 3 chapters of the official Rust Book: https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/

There will be some light snacks and drinks available throughout the workshop.
