Blockchain Developer Training & Education

Comprehensive Web3 Developer Education

Extropy delivers technical blockchain development training through partnerships with Encode Club and their own Extropy Academy platform. Since summer 2021, they've been running free courses covering fundamental and advanced Web3 development topics.

Core Training Modules

Smart Contract Development

• Solidity Basics: Learn how to write your first Ethereum smart contract using Solidity
• Advanced EVM: Deep dive into Ethereum Virtual Machine architecture and optimization
• Solidity → Rust: Transition training for developers moving to Rust-based blockchain platforms
• Smart Contract Development: Comprehensive courses on Ethereum and Hyperledger platforms

Zero Knowledge Proofs

• Zero Knowledge System Design: System architecture and application development using ZK proofs
• Math Primers for Zero Knowledge: Mathematical foundations behind ZK cryptography
• Production-ready ZK Applications: Building functional zero knowledge systems

Advanced Specializations

• Advanced MEV Course: Navigating the Dark Forest - 5 sessions from theory to production-ready code
  • MEV fundamentals & economic impact
  • Extraction strategies and associated risks
  • Modern infrastructure & tooling used in production
  • Deploying functional MEV systems
  • Responsible practices for sustainable development
• Rust Fundamentals for Blockchain Developers: 5-module course covering Intro, Ownership/References, Types/Traits, Functional Rust + Errors, and Solidity-to-Rust transition
• Blockchain Security: Security-focused training built by security researchers

Web3 Ecosystem

• Web3.js Integration: Frontend development and blockchain interaction
• DeFi Development: Tutorials on writing DeFi arbitrage bots and DeFi protocols
• Distributed Application Development: Building decentralized applications

Delivery Format

Extropy offers both in-house and external workshops with hands-on technical training. Their partnership with Encode Club provides free access to structured learning paths, while specialized courses like the MEV program target developers with intermediate Solidity/Web3 knowledge. All courses combine theoretical foundations with production-ready code implementation.

Educational Resources

Beyond structured courses, Extropy provides tutorials and learning materials on Ethereum, Solidity, Web3.js, DeFi, and Zero-Knowledge Proofs through the Extropy Foundation website and Extropy Academy platform.
