growing the solana ecosystem @seahorse_lang

[✨amelia✨ @ameliatastic]

1) @seahorse_lang, a framework for writing @solana programs in python, built on @anchorlang 👋

let's onboard the next 1 million devs ❤️

[Anvit @0xAnvit]

At the end of the day, learning to develop on @Solana has two main hurdles:

1. Solana Acccount Model
2. Rust + Anchor

Removing one of these hindrances opens Solana to a whole spectrum of developers

@seahorse_lang🐍 will have its tensorflow / pytorch moment

@tarunthusu @seahorse_lang @SuperteamDAO this is so awesome!! 😀

[✨amelia✨ @ameliatastic]

this is incredible 🤯❤️

[✨amelia✨ @ameliatastic]

@acheroncrypto love it 😍

[✨amelia✨ @ameliatastic]

thank you everyone for all of the support for @seahorse_lang recently ❤️

huge shoutout to @SuperteamDAO for bringing in so many community members and builders 😄

[✨amelia✨ @ameliatastic]

want to get hands-on rust dev experience?

come contribute to @seahorse_lang compiler!!😄 there are lots of bite-sized issues available looking for contributors.

great work by @denimcodes!!

he built a full implementation for a constant product AMM in @seahorse_lang 🤯😀

[Denim @denimcodes]

First build of the year for Solana. 🙌🏼

A sample program of constant product AMM built with @seahorse_lang.

Seahorse makes it incredibly easy to write smart contracts on Solana with Python language. 🤩

[✨amelia✨ @ameliatastic]

@stromboliSpirit thx for replying! could you add me so i can dm you:)

[✨amelia✨ @ameliatastic]

gm 👋

question: have you ever wanted to develop smart contracts on solana but never ended up following through?

what were your reasons?

ex: was the learning curve too steep, was there a lack of educational materials?

please dm/reply, i would love to know your story :)

[✨amelia✨ @ameliatastic]

more languages to drive mass adoption on @solana :D

[✨amelia✨ @ameliatastic]

@knox_trades @seahorse_lang thx for the feedback and for making this awesome thread :D

we will keep working harder to make seahorse a great experience for new solana devs ❤️

[✨amelia✨ @ameliatastic]

@redacted_noah @Monst3rWayne @knox_trades @seahorse_lang lmk how it goes! feedback from devs like you is really valuable 🙂

seahorse isn't perfect, but it's getting better each day

[✨amelia✨ @ameliatastic]

@AkuraCrypto @seahorse_lang thank you so much for the kind words ❤️

[✨amelia✨ @ameliatastic]

1) solana development beyond rust 💻

i believe that blockchains must support multiple languages to onboard the next wave of web3 devs

[✨amelia✨ @ameliatastic]

cool fact: in the last 6 months, we've shipped 14 new versions for @seahorse_lang 🚀🚀🚀

i can't forget to give a huge thanks to @callum_codes for being a major contributor 😀

[✨amelia✨ @ameliatastic]

@NamiSOLami yes! :)

[✨amelia✨ @ameliatastic]

any tips for getting more involved in the nft community on solana? 🙂

i would love to meet community members and see how i can help with on-chain development

[✨amelia✨ @ameliatastic]

@thatsnotkyle it's https://t.co/agVVK2zg42!

@acheroncrypto made the @seahorse_lang integration 😀

[GenesysGo @GenesysGo]

Could not agree more with this take on how to make #Solana and #web3 as a whole more inviting and easy for the next wave of devs.

Thank you @ameliatastic, you inspired us!

So, we went ahead and dropped a Python SDK for $SHDW Drive real quick. Enjoy!

[✨amelia✨ @ameliatastic]

@GenesysGo thanks so much! ❤️

the sdk looks awesome :)

[✨amelia✨ @ameliatastic]

4) lastly, smart contracts can still be type safe in languages like python!

@seahorse_lang compiles to rust so it inherits rust's type safety - more on this in another thread ❤️

[✨amelia✨ @ameliatastic]

4) by expanding the number of languages that solana programs can be developed in, more devs can join the ecosystem and build cool new things

for some a lot of cases, developer efficiency is important.

besides, not all contracts will be holding millions of dollars in them 😛
