Hello to my fellow aspiring Move devs -
One thing that is challenging in the early part of learning any language / dev eco is what to actually build. When still learning you want to build contracts that are challenging to learn and require some debugging / troubuleshooting, but aren’t so complex that you end up losing sight of the task and get frustrated to the point of wanting to give up on learning.
So with that in mind, here are some ideas for potential SIMPLE contracts you should be able to build once you go through the various Move tutorials and resources linked here, and participate in the Discord a little bit as well:
- Digital grocery list
- Gym sign in / signout sheet
- Car price quote contract
- Charity donor list (patron names and amounts)
- Restaurant menu & price list
- Calorie / macro calculator (nutrition app basic version)
- Cities by latitude and longitude
- Largest corporations by employees and revenue
- Hangman (word-guessing) game
- Computer configuration system (hard drive, memory, display options, etc)
- Music concert tickets (row, seat, price, VIP/GA)
- Addition/subtraction calculator
Learning to implement simple contracts like this will be helpful in getting the basics down. Please share other ideas you have in the comments to help other aspiring devs as well!
