Developer Ecosystem

This mission is critical because developer adoption will have a critical impact on the value of Cardano.

For Cardano to thrive, we need to focus on attracting developers and entrepreneurs to build on the blockchain. This mission is critical because the contributions from developers will play an increasingly important role in determining the health of the ecosystem and ultimately, the long-term success of Cardano.

Therefore at the end of the fund we will be asking ourselves:

Did our efforts manage to attract and onboard developers to our ecosystem?

We will be tracking the following metrics:

How many developers did we attract?

How many developers were successfully onboarded to develop software on top of Cardano?

Guiding questions:

What simple goals can be achieved first to attract an impactful community of developers?

What kind of apps/Dapps and businesses can be developed in the next six months?

Inspirational potential directions:

The community open roadmap contains a "Use cases" section and "Driving adoption" section that can serve as an inspiration for proposers.
