What is the Ethereum blockchain, smart contracts, gas, and Ether (ETH)?

Let's try explaining it in simple terms 🧵 The majority of big decentralized app (dApps) are built in the Ethereum blockchain (if you want a more in-depth explanation of what a blockchain is, please tell me!)

But... what is Ethereum? You can think of it as a global computer that no one can shut down.

Growing an audience on Twitter is not easy!

So... how do you do it?

This is a question I've been asked over and over.

Doesn't matter if you are a JavaScript developer or yoga enthusiast.

I'm gonna give you the tools so you can create and grow an audience.

Thread 🧵 1. Have a real name and picture.

(Or at least, real-sounding name).

People follow people, it gives them trust, so be yourself, I know it can be scary to show your face online or tell the world your name, but it creates trust.

This is not 100% required, look at @naval.

Thank you for being part of my circle!

Can you find yourself? 😁 Tagging people from the first circle!

On Friday, Zahra and I hosted a space called "Overcoming your fears".

We had some amazing speakers. For each of them, fear meant a different thing so they have a different way to overcome it.

I took notes and I compiled the best thoughts and advice of each of them.

Thread 🧵 .@icycodes:

She overcomes her fears by separating herself from the outcome, if she can focus on the experience, she's fearless.

She recommends resisting the urge to undermine your own accomplishments. Be proud of what you've done and don't worry about appearing egotistical.

What's the bus factor?

It refers to the number of people in your team that can get hit by a bus before your project gets stuck.

It doesn't have to be a bus, imagine illness, holidays, parental leave, changing jobs, etc.

Let's see how it happens and how to increase it 🧵 How can it happen?

- Having only one developer on the team. They build all the software and they are the only person that knows how everything works.

- Having a "rockstar" developer on the team. They build complex systems and don't tell anyone about them.

Do you know about Create React App templates?

Instead of starting with an empty project, you can start with some functionality already built-in.

Some examples would be typescript, redux...

You can also create your own templates. Links below ⬇️ Official CRA page about custom templates and how to create your own.

What is Next.js?

Next.js is becoming more and more popular recently. I want to explain exactly why and what does it do.

They call themselves "The React Framework for Production".

So, in a way, they convert React from a library to a framework.

Let's explain how they do it 🧵 ⭐ Pre-rendering.

Next generates HTML for each page in advance, instead of doing it client-side.

This results in better performance and SEO.

There are two forms of pre-rendering.

CSS fundamentals before learning Tailwind.

Some people believe that you need to be a CSS master before starting learning Tailwind, and that couldn't be further from the truth.

You should know some fundamentals, and I want to tell you exactly which ones.

Let's begin 🧵 background properties.

This is used to give properties to the background of an element, it could be any element.

These are the main ones you should know about:

I recreated the Stack Overflow login page with Tailwind CSS.

It's not perfect but I'm happy with the end result.

What differences can you spot? 👀

What do you think? What should I recreate next? Let's a poll! Which one do you think is the real one?

How to deploy (upload) your project to the Internet.

For free.

One of the most important things when creating a website/portfolio is putting it online. People need to see what you create.

I'm gonna explain the easiest way to do it.

You are gonna love it.

Let's begin 🧵 We are gonna use @vercel.
