Not at all. The purpose of this thread is mainly to capture the opinions of people who are not used to working with GitHub.

Hi Developer Portal link. I was reading your great Koios Team interview. I think you should make an interview about Dandelion API. By reference, Dandelion is a service similar to Koios. And also it's one of the most popular, Open Source, descentralized, free, in the Cardano ecosystem. The team behind Dandelion is Gimbalabs, the infraestructure and teaching center responsable for successfull Cardano startups like Loxe, jpg.store, Rarety, Martify, and others. The Gimbalabs co-founder James Dunseith and the Gimbalas co-founder and creator of Dandelion, Roberto Morano, will be open to talk with you. James email: [email protected] , Roberto's email: [email protected] , James Discord: jamesdunseith#3315 . Thanks.

Ethereum.org developers pages supports multiple languages.
We feel that now is the time to support multiple languages.

Are there any concerns in making this happen?

From the level of material support that the Cardano Foundation has shown lately for the Developer Portal and the CIP process, I would guess the only way this would be possible would be through a sizeable Project Catalyst bid in Fund 11 with a proposal scope to compensate existing CF Cardano Ambassadors qualified to submit technical translations in each of the target languages. 🤔

Hi Sir,

As a "not so seasoned" programmer - tried following : https://developers.cardano.org/docs/get-started/installing-cardano-node#linux

suggestions :

• ghcup install ghc 8.10.7 --> who updates this in case newer versions are suggested ? (same for cabal version)
• spent 4 hours being investigating why "cabal build all" gives this error ..
• Not really stimulating if following a 1st install page takes 4 hours and still not working :) (probably my own dumb fault)
  

Error: cabal: Could not resolve dependencies:

[__5] fail (backjumping, conflict set: base, hashable, unordered-containers)
After searching the rest of the dependency tree exhaustively, these were the
goals I've had most trouble fulfilling: base, hashable, unordered-containers,
yaml, yaml:nolib, cardano-node, cardano-git-rev
Try running with --minimize-conflict-set to improve the error message.

Thanks for the help !
kind regards,
Pieter

This isn't the right place to get help for these questions but there is an informed & helpful community with lots of node building experience here: https://t.me/CardanoStakePoolWorkgroup

Note a lot of dependency problems can be resolved by running cabal update (I always run it 3 times, mainly for metaphysical reasons)
