Canvas Coders hero

Designed and ran a Web3 buildathon that taught developers and creators how to build with NFTs and blockchain primitives, from zero coding experience to a shipped project in a weekend.

Challenge

Web3 tooling was technically inaccessible to most product builders. The learning curve was steep and the community was insular. The goal was to design an experience that lowered the barrier without dumbing down the technology.

Solution

Built a structured buildathon curriculum, selected and onboarded mentors, designed the submission and judging experience, and shipped the event infrastructure from scratch. Focused on practical, project-based learning with real deployed outputs.

Impact

  • Designed and ran a Web3 buildathon that drew 200+ registrants and produced 40+ real, deployed projects
  • Got non-technical builders writing and deploying NFT contracts in under 48 hours
  • Grew the Canvas Coders community by 300+ members off the back of a single event

Results

  • Established Canvas Coders as a credible Web3 education platform
  • Generated press coverage in crypto and dev community publications
