Infura Developer Community Call: Rapid Prototyping & Developer Tooling at Consensys RAD
Guest speaker presentation on the Infura Developer Community Call sharing rapid application prototyping, AI-assisted documentation, and zero-knowledge rollup tooling from the Consensys RAD team.
Hosted by Chris Anatalio on the May 2023 Infura Developer Community Call alongside Emily Lin (Linea) and Alexander Seleznev, I presented the engineering work our Consensys RAD (Rapid Application Development) team was shipping to make decentralized application development faster and more intuitive. We showcased how combining Infura's RPC infrastructure, Truffle/Hardhat workflows, and Linea's zkEVM testnet allowed developers to go from a local TypeScript template to a deployed, low-cost application in minutes.
I also shared early insights from our work applying large language models to technical documentation and developer support. That work directly led to shipping the OpenAI-powered documentation assistant across Consensys's developer portals.
