Here is a thread about the recent developments on Avalanche🔺 and my opinions about the developer community.

There is no 🔺 next to my name but I am definitely a huge fan of Avalanche, and I also care the developer community around it. Mostly I will talk about subnets and recent developments but this thread will consists of both positive and negative *opinions*.

We were talking about subnets since the beginning. The unique combination of Avalanche consensus and subnets allows builders to create fully customizable blockchains with its own security rules.

Avalanche's, at least Ava-Labs', primary focus is to bring real world assets to blockchain and replace the TradFi with use case specific subnets and apps. The upcoming institutional subnets and @enclavemarkets are the most basic examples. Subnets are the perfect arch. for this.

Currently, almost all subnets utilizes subnet-evm. I like EVM + improving EVM with precompiles is awesome for builders. However, offering SDK's in different languages will be more reasonable for long term as it provides amazing flexibility. -Thanks to Avalanche's abstraction!-

Recently Rust SDK has showed up. Now Rust developers can code their blockchain and it will seamlessly work as a part of AvalancheGo! Also the communication between mainnet-subnet has arrived with The Banff upgrade. All the communication is handled inside the protocol, no worries!

I checked out the Rust SDK repo and the example VMs written with Rust. I usually follow ava-labs in Github but I think these repos started as a private repo and now open sourced. I personally prefer fully public repos, and it might push community to contribute!

Ava Labs' tech team is one of the best teams in the space. They are delivering all of these and also trying to teach. Dev community of Avalanche is awesome, but it can become better. I think Avalanche Foundation should support individual builders to experiment, build, and teach.

C-Chain is an EVM instance and developers from Ethereum can shift to C-Chain easily. However if we want custom subnets and unique dev community we must onboard new devs from various backgrounds and support them to build. They can make documentations,tech meetups,tutorials,tools..

Ethereum ecosystem supports individual devs to build educational materials+encourage the community. Avalanche should support its native devs like subnetooors. Incentives like Multiverse support already funded projects but foundation should also support the community 🔺

I am more than excited to see how community will evolve around subnets and build infrastructural and educational tools to support each other. Also I am eagerly waiting for the new updates like how optimized EVM will look like -source @kevinsekniqi-.

I am not good at threads so I can add more later if something comes to my mind. I am an independent dev and currently building on multiple chains incl. rollups and subnets, so this is not a comparison post! Please share your thoughts about the dev community, #BUIDL 🔺🔺🔺
