Cardano Technical hub in Vietnamese

#IMPACT#

Problem statement:

As the data https://cardano.ideascale.com/a/pages/results/ from fund 2 to Fund6 shows there are very few technical projects from Vietnam submitted and funded. The reason is that technical manuals are still scattered in many places. There has not been a centralized hub with local languages yet. Especially the lack of examples to solve real problems. These are documents that motivate learners and help them believe in implementing the application

The solution to the problem:

In F6 we have been funded for a project, "Bring Smart Contracts to Vietnam". This project only provides partial technical information of Cardano- That is, the smart contract programming language. In comparison, there are many other important areas that have not been conveyed to Vietnamese language. Inspired by the content of https://developers.cardano.org/, In this F7 we have submitted projects: 

• Simplify SPO operations in Vietnam
• Townhall Channel in Vietnamese

And this project is the remaining piece of the whole picture. In this project we will focus on two areas:

• Guide the local users on how to participate in Project Catalyst and support their projects.
• Guide the local user on how to integrate Cardano into existing websites and services.

With the long-term roadmap for upcoming funds, we plan to build 03 training courses (beginner-intermediate-advanced)- The main content of these 03 courses will be taken from Cardano's training courses with real challenges. When participants complete all these contents, they will be issued a certificate based on NFT on the Cardano platform.

After the project is successfully deployed, our website (https://cardano2vn.io/) is a destination for the community. They will find specific examples. courses to solve real problems. Tech people will find it is much easier to bring their idea to market. Moreover, it allows everyone to participate to the best of their ability.
