At these workshops, we taught students about two popular blockchain platforms: Spheron and Solana. We provided a comprehensive overview of these platforms and how they work, and then we guided the students through the process of building and deploying their own decentralized applications (DApps) using these platforms.

The response from the students was overwhelmingly positive. Many of them had never been exposed to blockchain technology before and were fascinated by the possibilities it offered. They were excited to get hands-on experience with building DApps and were eager to learn more about how they could use these technologies to solve real-world problems.

One of the highlights of the workshops was seeing the students successfully deploy their DApps and watch them function in a live environment. It was truly gratifying to see the knowledge and skills they had gained during the workshop put into action.
