Building with Intention: Achieving System Qualities through Design Choices
Technical and design decisions should be viewed as means to achieving broader system qualities rather than ends in themselves. This talk reorients our focus on the underlying goals of these decisions, exploring why we build the way we do, what we aim to achieve, and whether there are better ways to reach comparable outcomes. Through examples and case studies, attendees will learn to critically evaluate their design choices and understand the broader implications of their technical strategies.
ERC-4337: Adoption Analysis
Since the EntryPoint contract was deployed, millions of smart accounts have been created and UserOps submitted, via hundreds of exciting projects in the space. Join us as we look at the interesting trends onchain and the unique challenges and exciting opportunities faced by teams building in the space
Speedrunning chain abstraction EIPs
We look at different EIPs in pipeline across the CAKE stack and how they relate to chain abstraction.
"My mother will not use it"
In this Talk, I want to cover the different mindsets designers need to improve and optimize the work for web3. If we're going to change the way we interact with each other and aim to profoundly improve society with this technology, we can't think and use the same methodologies. We will cover topics such as the target audience (the title of the Talk), testing, the learning curve, web2 to web3, and more.
Rethinking usability in a world of data ownership
What makes something usable in a world where the internet is built on open source cryptography? This talk explores how we might consider choice a key factor in the usability of applications where we are owners of our data which we can port, wield, and disclose at our discretion with other data owners. I will illustrate how we are testing our hypothesis that cryptography can surface meaningful connections through demo applications that embrace choice as a key usability factor.
The Rise of AI in Web3 Development UX
This talk explores the intersection of artificial intelligence and Web3 technologies, highlighting how AI can enhance the development of decentralized applications and blockchain ecosystems. The presentation will provide practical examples, code snippets, and insights into Web3 AI through the lens of the recent RemixAI integration into the Remix toolset. Attendees will gain valuable knowledge on leveraging AI to build more robust, intelligent, and user-friendly decentralized applications.
Improving the User Experience by User Research.
This workshop will help you understand your users and their needs, motivations and problems because this is a critical stage in product development. This will help reduce development risks and costs through improved user experience, decision validity, increased user loyalty, etc. We will practice in-depth interviews at the workshop, analyze its results and create a Customer Journey Map.
Open challenges in Mini-apps and Frames
There are a number of open challenges we've run into with trying to make interoperable mini-apps work at Open Frames. I'll run through some of them and what I think it'll take to get great UX via Mini-apps.
Building a Cross-Chain DEX with Chain Abstraction & Intents
In a multi-chain world, creating a user-friendly DEX is challenging. This talk explores how a DEX can leverage intents and chain abstraction to offer seamless cross-chain trading. We'll discuss the implementation of ERC7683 and integration with Across Protocol to enable trading across multiple chains.
Lighthouse: Introduction to Siren
Sigma Prime would like to introduce Lighthouse's official user interface called Siren. Siren was made to monitor performance, display key metrics and help make lighthouse validator management easy. Siren comes with built in metrics, logging, and other features users will find useful when updating their validator.
