Türkiye Rust Community Challenge

The Solana blockchain world offers many opportunities to develop innovative applications! During this challenge, you have the chance to design and develop your own decentralized application (Dapp) on the Solana blockchain. You can choose one of the real-life project examples below and start your development.

P.S: If you want to launch your own idea, the only limitation will be your imagination. 🚀

• If your project doesn’t have a front end, show how the functions work using Solana playground in the video and explain the project details.

• Projects must be uploaded to GitHub.

• Your README file should be clear and detailed.

• The project must be ready for live testing.

• If there is front-end development, the UI should be clean and organized. (Front-end development is optional.)

2) Basic Functionality

• The code should work correctly and not contain errors or unnecessary functions.

• You should use the latest version of the programming language for smart contracts. Also, use the latest stable versions of frameworks for the front end if applicable.

Judging Criteria

Projects that meet the minimum criteria will be scored by our team based on the following criteria:

1) Originality: How unique and innovative are the features of the project? How many new features have been added beyond the course tutorials?

2) Scope: How well does the project cover the course content? How well have optional contents beyond the required materials been incorporated?

3) Technical Quality: How clean is the code? Is it well-documented? Are tests properly included?

4) User Experience: How clear, intuitive, and enjoyable is the user experience of the project?

5) Readiness: How close is the project to being adopted by real users? Is it ready for scalable use? Does it include all practical features needed for real-world usage?

6) Potential Impact: How large could the impact of the project be globally? Can it be applied to a wider audience?
