FAQ

Frequently asked questions.

Do I need prior experience? +

Yes. We recommend programming experience in any language — ideally Web2 (JS/Python) or Solidity. The bootcamp is open to all, but keep in mind the Rust module has a learning curve if you don't have a coding baseline.

Are classes live? +

Yes, with recordings available.

Is it a real project? +

Yes, an Arbitrum Stylus dApp you'll build in module 4.

Is there a certificate? +

Yes, with at least 75% attendance at live sessions.

What if I miss a class? +

You can watch the recording. Every session tracks attendance.
