What did she do right to explore the career development path of Web3 from scratch? If you are now standing outside the door of the Web3 industry, what basic knowledge and industry status should you understand to help you lock in your ideal development goals faster?

From Web2 to Web3, what did she do right to become a veteran in the industry?

In recent years, many developers are eager to learn blockchain development through systematic technology and knowledge learning, and master industry knowledge such as Polkadot, Solidity and smart contracts. To this end, Oneblock+ organized a special event "Web2 Entering Web3: Solidity Expert Cultivation Path" held at 20:00 on the evening of March 7. This event specially invited PaperMoon Developer Relations Teacher Wang Dachui to share his industry exploration experience with us. The audience partners and development experts had in-depth exchanges to jointly capture the secrets of deep cultivation in the industry field.

🙌 Lecturer’s practical experience sharing

🧬 From Web2 to Web3, how to find the starting point

From a former smart contract developer to one currently dedicated to developing blockchain infrastructure and decentralized networks, Wang Dachui is always interested in new technological adventures, which guides her to continuously explore new directions for industry development.
From Web2 to Web3, what did she do right to become a veteran in the industry?

When we first consider choosing Web3, we need to think about what kind of group can be suitable for the Web3 industry environment. People who enter the Web3 industry should have high technical requirements and self-driving ability, be able to adapt to high uncertainty and rapid changes , and only with a strong willingness to learn and acceptance can they master the latest cutting-edge technologies and industry trends; secondly, Web3 practitioners must have keen market insight and innovative thinking, and be able to quickly respond to market changes and adjust product directions. "The industry iterates very quickly. Only by making good plans and directions and being able to accept risks and challenges under remote and free conditions can we have the opportunity to gain greater development space," said Mr. Wang Dachui.

🧬 Gain insights into the direction of the Web3 industry and find your ideal career goal

After acquiring these basic Web3 capabilities and qualities to enter the industry, we still need to understand various Web3 industry positions. Teacher Wang Dachui introduced some common Web3 job positions and job requirements. For example, product managers need to understand the basic concepts of the industry, such as what blockchain is, the functions and usage of tools such as block browsers, exchanges, and wallets, and have a certain level of technical understanding, including blockchain system architecture, front-end and back-end collaboration models, and basic cryptographic knowledge, such as hash algorithms and encryption algorithms ; front-end/back-end engineers need to have a deep understanding of on-chain data reading, operation, and user experience optimization, and be able to have a deep understanding and security awareness of product logic, competitive product dynamics, and industry trends ; operations positions require a deep understanding of industry basics and related tracks, and design and implement effective strategies around user needs.

🧬 Master the advantages and features of common technologies and get started with development and collaboration faster

As a developer, you also need to be familiar with the basic components and core concepts of blockchain, such as transaction pools, consensus mechanisms, encryption algorithms, peer-to-peer networks, and virtual machines, and clearly understand different development and design solutions for professional applications in specific fields. As for common languages such as Solidity and Rust, Mr. Wang Dachui also conducted detailed analysis and explanations.

In general, Solidity is easy to learn and has simple syntax. It is a relatively simple scripting language, similar to Java in terms of design patterns. From an entry-level perspective, Solidity is not very expressive and does not require a high level of computer skills, but it has relatively high requirements for the business itself and is more suitable for DApp development applications. As for Rust, it is expressive and suitable for complex projects , requires a high level of computer skills, and has full-stack general technical attributes.

Today, Solidity has also undergone a new change compared to the entry standards 5 years ago . Now Solidity's basic types, contracts, inheritance, and interfaces have all had new forms of expression, including upgradeable contract architectures, knowledge of response syntax used, etc.; you also need to understand the basic principles of Unisawp and simple contract attack methods, and have a good understanding of the head project codes in different tracks. Rich practical experience can help you achieve in-depth cultivation in the industry and in-depth exploration of the industry with more main developers of development projects.

🧬 Getting started with Solidity learning path, the steps you need to master

For developers who are interested in the Solidity language but don’t know the correct way to learn it, Mr. Wang Dachui also shared some common path guides for everyone to learn and refer to. In general, it is divided into the following steps:

1. Getting Started

- Clarify the basic concepts of Solidity, the core language of Ethereum smart contracts, and the corresponding version management solution

- Understand the direction of building the development environment: online compiler - local development environment - dependency management - test chain

4. Advanced links

- A new direction for Solidity advanced security and optimization, common Solidity security vulnerabilities and attack issues

- Best practices for secure development of Solidity (security libraries, static analysis tools, multi-signatures and permission management)

- Gas fee optimization direction

In addition, Mr. Wang Dachui also introduced related skills such as in-depth advancement and project practice. The on-site developers gained a lot and brought more technical inspiration and his desire. Finally, Mr. Wang Dachui also introduced to us that Polkadot is particularly suitable for students who have a strong interest in the underlying technology of blockchain , especially engineers engaged in the development of Web2 industry middleware. As one of the industry leaders, the Polkadot design framework can not only help developers deeply understand the core concepts of blockchain, but also effectively improve the level of development technology. It is worth exploring and trying!
