openIDL NodeBuilder Workshop 2023

GOALS

Our goal in this is to get everyone up to speed and "hands-dirty" with the code as we start moving to scale the network. At the end of the workshop series you should have a node and have connected it to the openIDL Testnet. All workshop sessions will be recorded.

CLASS CADENCE AND SCHEDULING

Our plan is to hold classes on the following cadence, starting next Monday 5/15:

Mon (Class): 3:30pm-5:30pm ET

Tues (Office Hours): 2pm-4pm ET

Weds (Class): 3pm-5pm ET

Thurs (Office Hours): 2pm-4pm ET

We are recording and posting all sessions to the openIDL Wiki, as well as having Office Hours 2x a week in case you have questions or want feedback on your work.
