The Next 700 EVM Languages

Duration: 00:00:00

Speaker: Francisco Giordano

Type: Talk

Expertise: Intermediate

Event: Devcon

Date: Nov 2024

What is the role of programming languages in helping smart contracts become reliable and scalable technology? Are our current languages for the EVM up to the task? Has Ethereum lost the lead in this regard? This talk explores these questions and proposes a roadmap for the development of the next generation of smart contract languages for the EVM.

Farcaster frames: building embeddable Ethereum apps

Frames are an open standard for creating embeddable, interactive apps in social media feeds and on the web. They help solve one of the hardest problems for Ethereum dapp developers: distribution. Although frames originated on Farcaster, it's now possible to build cross-platform frames that work on Farcaster, Lens, XMTP, and the open web. In this hands on workshop we'll introduce the core concepts behind frames and build a simple frame app that interacts with a smart contract.

Verifier Alliance: inside of the contract verification pipeline

The talk will guide you through a smart-contract verification process step by step while introducing some technical details and challenges verification services have to handle. Will describe what we have learned building "Verifier Alliance" - a new collective that unites different verification providers to have an open and shared database of smart contracts (verifieralliance.org).

Indexing Entire 2.4 Billion Transactions on Ethereum in 10 Hours

This talk covers learnings from building a general-purpose indexer which index every single transaction since genesis. There is also technical decisions when we have to deal with 7 billions records of data and how to process all of those data in less than half a day. Additionally, we will discuss the difference between batch data processing and real-time data processing, sharing best practices and strategies for both approaches.

Learn Huff to become an EVM chad

Become an EVM chad by learning Huff, a low level assembly language for the EVM! On top of being able to write super duper optimized smart-contracts, Huff will teach you how the EVM works under the hood and will let you master high level languages like Solidity or Vyper.

MUD - How we built an EVM application framework from the ground up

We wanted to accomplish one simple task: put a game—with all its data and logic—on a blockchain. What followed were countless technical challenges, years of efforts, and learnings that are applicable to anyone building complex onchain apps. How should data be structured? How can complex world state stay up-to-date on the client? How do we allow multiple teams to build on one single world, without it all breaking apart? Join us as we share the pitfalls and learnings.

Introduction to Snarks

Blockchains are a hostile world were all information is public and computations are expensive. A technology called zkSNARKs is coming to the rescue: It allows both a tremendous speedup in verifying the correctness of a computation while at the same time it hides the private details from prying eyes. This talk tries to give an idea about how and why it works.
