Build Web3 apps with Javascript

Please sign in to watch this workshop.

The workshop is designed to help Web2 developers start building for Web3 using the Hyperverse. The Hyperverse is an open marketplace of community-built, audited, easy to discover smart modules. Our goal - to make it easy for JavaScript developers to build Web3 apps without writing a single line of smart contract code. Think “npm for smart contracts.”

Learn more about the Hyperverse here.

We will go over all the blockchain/crypto basics you need to know to start building on the Hyperverse, so you do not need to have any previous knowledge about the Web3 space. You just need to have JavaScript experience.

This workshop has been presented at JSNation 2022, check out the latest edition of this JavaScript Conference.

FAQ

Hyperverse is a community-built, open, and audited platform of modular on-chain smart contracts for all major blockchains. It simplifies blockchain development by allowing developers to build Web3 applications using familiar languages like JavaScript, without needing to write smart contract code themselves.

No, you do not need to know smart contract coding to use Hyperverse. The platform is designed to allow Web2 developers to build Web3 apps using JavaScript, leveraging pre-built smart modules for various functionalities.

With Hyperverse, you can build various types of Web3 apps, such as NFT minting sites and community-based platforms like Tribes, where users can create, join, or leave groups. The platform uses JavaScript for all front-end development, simplifying the process for developers familiar with Web2 technologies.

In Hyperverse, once smart contract developers create smart modules, they are sent to registrars who validate their documentation and metadata. After validation, these modules are reviewed by auditors who examine the code for security and reliability, staking tokens as a form of assurance and creating an insurance layer.

Yes, Hyperverse enables you to build Web3 apps without any blockchain-specific knowledge. By using JavaScript and accessing pre-built smart modules, developers can focus on the application's functionality rather than the complexities of blockchain technology.

To start building a Web3 app on Hyperverse, you need basic knowledge of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. The platform provides all the necessary tools and libraries to connect and use smart modules like building blocks, simplifying the development process.

Hyperverse offers several benefits for Web3 development, including ease of use, no requirement for smart contract coding knowledge, and a supportive community. It also provides a modular approach, allowing developers to easily integrate various functionalities into their applications.

Hyperverse ensures the trustworthiness of its smart modules through a rigorous process involving community registrars and auditors. Auditors review the modules and stake tokens on them, providing an insurance layer that boosts trust and reliability.

Workshop

Asaf Shen

Passwordless authentication may seem complex, but it is simple to add it to any app using the right tool.
We will enhance a full-stack JS application (Node.JS backend + React frontend) to authenticate users with OAuth (social login) and One Time Passwords (email), including:- User authentication - Managing user interactions, returning session / refresh JWTs- Session management and validation - Storing the session for subsequent client requests, validating / refreshing sessions
At the end of the workshop, we will also touch on another approach to code authentication using frontend Descope Flows (drag-and-drop workflows), while keeping only session validation in the backend. With this, we will also show how easy it is to enable biometrics and other passwordless authentication methods.

Making JavaScript on WebAssembly Fast

Lin Clark

Working on WebAssembly at Fastly. Code Cartoons Author.

WebAssembly enables optimizing JavaScript performance for different environments by deploying the JavaScript engine as a portable WebAssembly module. By making JavaScript on WebAssembly fast, instances can be created for each request, reducing latency and security risks. Initialization and runtime phases can be improved with tools like Wiser and snapshotting, resulting in faster startup times. Optimizing JavaScript performance in WebAssembly can be achieved through techniques like ahead-of-time compilation and inline caching. WebAssembly usage is growing outside the web, offering benefits like isolation and portability. Build sizes and snapshotting in WebAssembly depend on the application, and more information can be found on the Mozilla Hacks website and Bike Reliance site.

Webpack in 5 Years?

Top Content

Tobias Koppers

Webpack and Turbopack Creator

In the last 10 years, Webpack has shaped the way we develop web applications by introducing code splitting, co-locating style sheets and assets with JavaScript modules, and enabling bundling for server-side processing. Webpack's flexibility and large plugin system have also contributed to innovation in the ecosystem. The initial configuration for Webpack can be overwhelming, but it is necessary due to the complexity of modern web applications. In larger scale applications, there are performance problems in Webpack due to issues with garbage collection, leveraging multiple CPUs, and architectural limitations. Fixing problems in Webpack has trade-offs, but a rewrite could optimize architecture and fix performance issues.

Towards a Standard Library for JavaScript Runtimes

Top Content

James Snell

Workers team @Cloudflare

There is a need for a standard library of APIs for JavaScript runtimes, as there are currently multiple ways to perform fundamental tasks like base64 encoding. JavaScript runtimes have historically lacked a standard library, causing friction and difficulty for developers. The idea of a small core has both benefits and drawbacks, with some runtimes abusing it to limit innovation. There is a misalignment between Node and web browsers in terms of functionality and API standards. The proposal is to involve browser developers in conversations about API standardization and to create a common standard library for JavaScript runtimes.
