Decentralized Applications, or dApps, represent the next generation of app development, leveraging blockchain's potential to offer a more transparent, secure, and user-centric digital experience. The key differentiation lies in the backend: instead of relying on centralized servers, dApps use blockchain as their backbone. As dApps allow for direct integration with users' wallets, they can facilitate seamless and trustless peer-to-peer interactions.
Each step of the journey to build a dApp offers unique considerations, insights, and challenges. Below are several sections with summarized descriptions to guide developers through a wealth of internal resources available:
