Intermediate Bootcamp: Python

 **Project:** Digital Marketplace **Project Description:** This is the next step after the beginner bootcamp project. You will use Python to improve your digital marketplace app with new features such as “unique smart contract,” “listing fees,” etc., to create a more realistic and strong decentralized application. **Time: 10:00 AM EST** each day. **Agenda:** * Session 1 (May 20th): Building multiple listing features for a single contract * Session 2 (May 21st):Testing the multiple listing contract * Session 3 (May 22nd): Enhancing front-end features to display all listings * Session 4 (May 23rd): Enhancing the contract with auction capabilities and deploy to TestNet **Prerequisites: ** * Completion of Beginner Bootcamp content * [VS Code](https://code.visualstudio.com/) (Recommended) * [Git](https://git-scm.com/downloads) * [Docker Desktop](https://www.docker.com/products/docker-desktop/) * [Python 3.10+](https://www.python.org/downloads/) * [NodeJS](https://nodejs.org/en/download) _Installation Guides_ ([macOS](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zsurtpCGmgE), [Windows](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=22RvINnZsRo)) **Why Algorand?** Algorand is an enterprise-grade programmable layer-1 blockchain – the perfect place to start (or continue) your blockchain journey. * Blocks on Algorand are processed in under 3 seconds. * The Algorand network can process more than 10,000 transactions per second, all with instant finality. * The cost per transaction is 0.001 Algo (just a fraction of a cent). * Algorand is carbon-neutral and built environmentally friendly from the ground up. * Testing on Algorand is fast and cost-efficient, allowing you to innovate without friction. Plus, it has a wealth of developer tooling, tutorials, and documentation. Ready for the best bit? If you’re a Python or TypeScript dev, you don’t need to learn a new language because you can build on Algorand in Python and TypeScript. It’s easy to get building thanks to [AlgoKit](https://developer.algorand.org/algokit/?utm_source=devportal&utm_medium=bootcamp_landingpage&utm_campaign=algokit) (our solution to speed up your Web3 building process).
