WebFusion Lagos 2023Blockchain development often involves an overcomplicated onboarding process and the requirement to learn various programming languages such as Solidity, Rust, Cadence and more. This steep learning curve has presented a formidable barrier to entry whereas we believe that shouldn't be the case.  WebFusion aim's bridge the gap between Web2 and Web3 by providing developers with a seamless transition into this exciting space using the <a href="https://docs.near.org/bos" target="_blank">BOS</a> (Blockchain Operating System). From November 27th to November 30th 2023 at the ALX Hub in ITF Training Complex Iponri Lagos, Web developers in Lagos Nigeria will leverage their experience in Javascript and React to start building components and decentralized apps on the BOS. With BOS, developers don't need to learn any new programming languages to start building fully decentralized dApps.Our primary goal is to educate, inspire innovation, and foster collaboration within the existing tech community in Nigeria.<h2>Goals</h2>NEAR, BOS, and BeyondDiscover the endless possibilities that BOS offers developers, builders, and creators. Learn about NEAR's ecosystem and how its Blockchain Operating System can power your ideas.Building Bridges and Fostering GrowthAt WebFusion Lagos, we celebrate diversity, collaboration, and innovation within the tech community. Join hands with like-minded individuals, exchange ideas, and forge new collaborations that can spark groundbreaking projects <h2>Audience</h2>Developers of all background, designers, technical writers, founders and enthusiasts.
