Joining Arbitrum Foundation as a Developer Advocate

Hello everyone! If I were to join the Arbitrum Foundation, here are some ways I'd like to help make learning about Arbitrum easier and more fun, especially for those new to the scene:

Troubleshooting Hub and FAQ

What's Needed: Right now, when developers run into problems, they need a go-to place where they can find solutions. Think of it like a help desk but online. This would include answers to common problems like how to fix errors when deploying contracts or using Stylus.

What It Does: Having this would make life easier for developers by providing quick fixes and guidance, making them feel supported and encouraging them to stay involved with Arbitrum.

Developer Relations Program

What's Needed: We need a program that connects developers directly with the team at Arbitrum. This could involve giving developers early access to new tools or features before they're released to everyone else.

What It Does: This program would help developers feel special and part of something bigger, potentially turning them into loyal advocates for Arbitrum. It also means more developers would want to build things on our platform.

Stylus for Solidity Developers - Interactive Tutorial

What's Needed: A lot of developers know Solidity but might not know how to work with Stylus, which uses languages like Rust. An interactive tutorial that helps Solidity developers learn Stylus would be super useful.

What It Does: This tutorial would make it easier for existing developers to start using Stylus, bringing more creativity and projects to Arbitrum.

Stylus Forums

What's Needed: A place where developers can talk, ask questions, share ideas, and get help.

What It Does: Forums would build a community spirit, help with problem-solving, and keep everyone updated on new developments or votes on how Arbitrum should move forward.

"Speedrun Arbitrum" Bootcamp and Live Coding

What's Needed: Imagine a fun, game-like learning experience where developers tackle challenges to learn about Arbitrum and Stylus. We'd also have live sessions where people can code together.

What It Does: This approach would make learning engaging, keep developers coming back for more, and provide a way for us to see what developers are struggling with and improve our tutorials accordingly.

By implementing these ideas, we can make Arbitrum not just a platform for developers but a vibrant community where everyone can grow, learn, and innovate together.
