On Thursday, 8th February 2024, we were delighted to host the "Introduction to Rust and Soroban without Leaving the Browser" workshop for our Encode x Stellar Educate Series! A huge thank you to Morgan Wilde from Okashi for sharing his knowledge!

About the Encode x Stellar Educate:
Encode x Stellar Educate is a 4-week programme consisting of four workshops covering Stellar, Soroban smart contract on Stellar, using Rust and Soroban, developing your first dApp on Stellar using Soroban, and data indexing. This programme is free and open for everyone, no matter their professional or educational background and level of coding knowledge.

About Stellar
Stellar is a decentralized, public blockchain that gives developers the tools to create experiences that are more like cash than crypto. The network is faster, cheaper, and far more energy-efficient than most blockchain-based systems. It’s designed so Stellar’s ecosystem can make a real-world, lasting impact.

The Stellar Development Foundation, or SDF for short, is a nonprofit organization created and structured to achieve a mission: creating equitable access to the global financial system through blockchain technology. We believe that some of today’s financial systems aren’t designed for everyone and that by leveraging networks like Stellar, we can do our part to change that.
