The Scrypto Developer Event was the first in-person Scrypto developer event, held by RDX Works at Sud Hall in Lisbon, Portugal, on 9 April 2022. It introduced developers to Scrypto and Radix’s asset-oriented approach to building smart contracts.

Format

The full-day programme ran from morning registration through an opening “Why DeFi is the Future” talk, two hands-on workshop sessions, a closing talk, and an open Q&A. The workshops were run by the RDX Works Builders Team, taking attendees through the basics of Scrypto and on to writing simple blueprints and components in the afternoon. Each participant took home a Scrypto developer box, prizes were awarded for completing workshop tasks, and — for those who could not attend in person — the event was live-streamed and recorded.

Significance

Held while Scrypto was still in alpha — more than a year before it reached production with the Babylon mainnet — the Lisbon event set the template for Radix’s later developer outreach, including the Austin Developer Event, the university DApp In a Day workshop series, and remote hackathons such as the Scrypto DeFi Challenge.
