Starting your Tezos developer journey
summary
Start-to-finish developer roadmap: use opentezos for tutorials and examples; learn Tezos’ liquid proof‑of‑stake model (bakers stake TEZ) and the reported ~5–6x lower energy cost versus PoW; expect on‑chain governance with protocol upgrades roughly every 3–4 months and a current block finality of two blocks; optimize for storage is the main cost (CPU is cheap); write contracts in Michelson or higher‑level languages Archetype, Ligo or SmartPy; test locally via client mockup, generate TypeScript bindings and run npm + mocha tests; apply formal verification tools (Archetype, Mi‑… tools) where budget allows.
