The Cookbook is a collection of guides, tutorials, and reference materials for developers looking to build decentralised applications (dApps) on the Arweave network. It is maintained by community and is the perfect resource for anyone to get started on Arweave or come back for reference!
The content in the cookbook is organised into different sections that covers various aspects of building dApps like logic, querying data, various standard definitions and implementations, underlying concepts, etc. These sections also include protocol specific guides that make the implementation process easier and developer friendly. The logic based guides deal with function definition, uploading them on the network and interacting with them thereafter. Cookbook has recently added documentation for one such protocol that facilitates the logic handling section of developing dApps.
Execution Machine (EXM) is a developer platform that provides the ability to create and leverage blockchain-based (permanent) serverless functions without the need for knowledge of or access to blockchain technologies like wallets and tokens. This further enables users to create composable, immutable and trustless applications in a frictionless manner.
Serverless functions take the burden of server management off the developers so they can focus on building and the added benefit of quick fixes and updates due to error or feature localisation. Additionally, doing so on Arweave means these functions and any data associated with them are immutable and available for storage at a low one time fee.
The Execution Machine (EXM) sections include a guide to getting started with the EXM, building and deploying serverless functions, interacting with the Arweave network using API keys and SDKs, and more. Each section contains detailed guides and tutorials that walk developers through the processes.
If you’re a developer interested in building decentralised applications on the Arweave network, the Cookbook is an excellent resource to help you get started. With its comprehensive coverage of the EXM and its easy-to-follow guides and tutorials, it is a valuable tool for anyone looking to build on the Arweave network.
So, if you want to build decentralised applications on the Arweave network using EXM, head over to the Arweave Cookbook and start exploring today!
