Self-paced
Recorded lessons with code, exercises, and a repo to clone. Learn on your own schedule, revisit anytime within your access year.
Courses
Learn to build on Cardano.
The same skills behind this demo, taught hands-on. Go from the eUTxO basics to shipping a full NFT marketplace — Aiken smart contracts, Lucid Evolution off-chain, CIP-68 NFTs, and a mainnet launch. Buy once, watch for a full year.
From first transaction to mainnet
Take a single course or follow the path end to end. Every course is taught against real, working code — including the architecture that powers this marketplace. Each purchase includes one year of access.

This site is the syllabus
Everything you learn maps to something live in this demo — the creator profile, the collections, the marketplace, the royalty and treasury splits. Explore it first, then learn exactly how each piece is built.
