• Lost the context of these links (I think it had to do with Art)

  https://tkn.farm/

Referencing the ERC-721 standard for Ethereum for comparison

• List of NEAR projects

  https://awesomenear.com/

• Creator of WebAssembly Music -

• Not sure the context - need to review

  https://cura.run/

• Decentralised storage options mentioned

  • IPFS
  • Sia Sky
  • Arweave
  • Filecoin
  • StorJ - https://www.storj.io

• Didn’t get the context, but looks like a list of Near resources

  https://vitalpoint.ai/academy/

• Starting to walk thru with this example

  https://github.com/Learn-NEAR/starter--near-sdk-as

• Walkthru of two different styles of writing contracts - The simple style and the singleton style. The singleton style was created to assist those familar with Rust to get a handle of AssemblyScript better.

• Installing the Near CLI is a dependency (see Monday’s lesson, also good videos on the README for the walkthru of the project.

• William Wyndham’s Github (not sure of context, shared in chat) as someone to follow on Github and YouTube

• Question: If I forget to run Cleanup script in a current session, how would I find it again after the terminal is closed to perform the operation

• Answer from Abdul Raul - You can search your deployed contract on block explorer of test and can do cleanup by storing its address in the contract environment variable and then running the Cleanup script.

• AssemblyScript is good for simple contracts, meant to move away from the overhead of learning Rust for the simple stuff, as you may get lost in the weeds learning Rust or not appreciate its nuances if no background with other languages
