Added create-dot-app to the Starter Templates section in polkadot-hub-devs.md. This CLI tool provides Solidity templates for both React and Vue frameworks, making it easier for developers to scaffold smart contract dApps on Polkadot.


- [**create-polkadot-dapp**](https://www.npmjs.com/package/create-polkadot-dapp?activeTab=readme) - a scaffolding tool to generate project boilerplates. Explore the `react-solidity` template located in the `templates` folder which comes pre-configured with **React, Tailwind CSS, and Ethers.js** for frontend interaction with your smart contracts

Hi @preschian, how does this differ from create-polkadot-dapp? Is there a clear advantage to using this tool instead of create-polkadot-dapp that would make hackers prefer it?

hi @nhussein11 👋🏻

the diff:

  • multi framework choice (react/vue)
  • multi sdk choice (dedot/papi)
  • reach MVP faster with vibe coding. no cli required. could help onboard non-technical people. demo. hhmm, maybe i think i should put this somewhere in this docs 🤔

soon:

  • embedded wallet for solidity templates (wip)
  • ink! smart contracts (wip)
