Road to Permissionless Deployment
You can now autonomously deploy and upgrade smart contracts. Permissionless smart contract deployment allows anyone to build new experiences on Flow - whether net new, or composed on top of existing applications – your work will enrich the Flow ecosystem as a whole.
To enable this important milestone, Cadence, Flow's native smart contract programming language, has been undergoing rigorous audits and improvements, split in 2 phases: Secure Cadence, and Stable Cadence.
Permissionless smart contract deployment is only one of many ways that the Flow ecosystem is growing and enabling opportunities. For example, Flow's $750M Ecosystem Fund is the largest joint commitment made towards any blockchain ecosystem. A diverse group of the world’s leading investors are deploying capital and resources independently to teams building on Flow who can now build without barriers. The fund is focused on gaming, infrastructure, decentralized finance, content and creators. Join a vibrant community building the future of Web3.
I am a developer
I am a node operator
On June 15th, Flow mainnet underwent a successful spork that introduced important changes! No further action is required – in case of any follow ups required, follow the Spork process outlined here. Please ensure a timely upgrade and tight communication with the rest of the network.
I am not (yet) a developer/builder, but I am interested in Flow
Splendid! Glad to have you here, it’s the perfect time to start building. Get started here.
