STELLAR BLOCKCHAIN -YOUTUBE TUTORIAL PLAYLIST

This is a submission for the Build Better on Stellar: Smart Contract Challenge: Create a Tutorial

Your Tutorial

Here is the tutorial I created about the Stellar blockchain.
Stellar Blockchain Network Tutorial Series

What I Created

I created a playlist about the stellar blockchain network. Starting from the basics of Stellar network.

I created a playlist that delves into the Stellar blockchain network, beginning with the fundamentals of the Stellar network. The playlist is designed to provide a comprehensive understanding of Stellar's infrastructure, starting from its basic principles and gradually advancing to intermediate and then to more complex concepts. The playlist currently contains 8 uploaded videos of about 3 hours. It's an ideal starting point for anyone looking to grasp the essentials of the Stellar blockchain and its capabilities.

My submission is to help make the stellar blockchain as understandable as possible. Providing references to real-life scenarios, other blockchains and diagrams to make the concepts about Stellar network as understandable as possible. The videos I created and have compiled into a playlist follows a progression so that whoever watches the video will have a good and deep knowledge of what the stellar blockchain network is all about. The videos build on themselves similar to how Stellar ledgers build on themselves. I also ensure that major points I discussed during the videos are properly shown and where applicable explained with diagrams. These videos will support developers who need better understanding about the Stellar blockchain and for developers who want to build Dapps on Stellar. From the videos, you learn about the rules that govern the Stellar blockchain, what Stellar blockchain is best equipped for, how smart contracts work on Stellar blockchain, from the conversion of Soroban contracts to WASM to deployment on the blockchain, you will learn about all of this and more from this compiled playlist about Stellar.

Journey

The motivation behind creating the videos was when I was going through the docs. Though the docs were explanatory enough to understand, because I have good knowledge about the blockchain and various other blockchains and because I also teach in physical location about blockchain and web3, I thought of changing my approach to teaching about blockchain by making videos to share my knowledge about what I am currently learning about Stellar blockchain. This month of August is my first time exploring the Stellar blockchain and since I found Stellar interesting and that I found it's features much appealing. I thought of sharing my knowledge about the Stellar blockchain in moving pictures and not just through physically classes as I would normally do.

I would like to credit my friend that told me about this hackathon about Stellar blockchain. She picked my interest about Stellar and got me interested in learning and exploring Stellar. Though she couldn't complete the hackathon and make her submission. I am crediting her in this post.

Thank you for reading.
Kudos to the SDF (Stellar Development Foundation), they are doing a good job.
Kudos to the Stellar Community. I'm happy to be a part of that community now.
