Intro Bootcamp
 **Project:** Asset creation and transaction using AlgoKit SDK. **Bootcamp Description:** One of Algorand's main features is the possibility of creating accounts and assets, and sending transactions, without a smart contract. That's why we’ve created this bootcamp: to help you take your first steps into Algorand development using the AlgoKit SDK. **Time: 10:00 AM EST** **Duration:** 90 mins each session **Agenda:** * Session 1 (April 2nd): Introduction to Algorand concepts and AlgoKit SDK. * Session 2 (April 4th): Using AlgoKit and dev environment Setup. **Prerequisites: ** * GitHub Account - [Sign up ](https://github.com/signup) * [VS Code](https://code.visualstudio.com/) (Recommended) **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).

PyTeal — Writing Algorand Smart Contracts in Python
PyTeal is a python language binding for Algorand Smart Contracts (ASC) that abstracts away the complexities in writing smart contracts. PyTeal is provided as an open-source tool for the Algorand community. We invite you to try, use, and contribute to PyTeal if you are interested in developing and deploying ASC’s in Python.

Making Development Easier with AlgoDEA IntelliJ Plugin
AlgoDEA IntelliJ plugin provides end to end development life-cycle on Algorand blockchain using IntelliJ IDE. Using this plugin, developers can create and test both stateless and stateful smart contracts directly from their IntelliJ IDE. Some of the other key features supported by this plugin are editor support for TEAL & PyTeal files, ASA management, Atomic Transfers, Test account management. The goal of this plugin is to increase developer productivity by simplifying various interactions with Algorand blockchain. Due to simple consistent development workflow in the IDE, developers can iterate faster during development stage.
