Abstract
This proposal seeks funding from the Moonbeam Treasury to integrate Cookbook.dev’s AI developer assistant agent into the Moonbeam Developer Documentation. The AI agent will provide real-time, contextual support to developers, enhancing their experience and accelerating development on the Moonbeam network. The onboarding system includes a “Chain Info” tab containing outlinks to everything relevant for builders on Moonbeam as well as a code playground environment featuring Cookbook.dev’s entire Solidity smart contract template library featuring over 1900 contract templates for tokens, NFTs, DEXs, DAOs and more, available alongside the AI assistant This initiative aligns with Moonbeam’s mission of fostering a robust and accessible developer ecosystem.
Motivation
The Moonbeam developer community is rapidly growing, and with it, the demand for quick and efficient access to accurate documentation and support. While the existing documentation is extensive, developers often face challenges in navigating and extracting relevant information. Cookbook.dev’s AI assistant and onboarding workflow integrated into the documentation will:
- Reduce the “time to hello world” down to seconds or minutes for developers on Moonbeam with the code playground and smart contract templates.
- Improve developer efficiency by providing instant, accurate responses to common and complex queries.
- Reduce developer friction by minimizing the time spent searching for information.
- Enhance engagement and retention by making the developer experience more interactive and intuitive.
- Scale support without requiring constant human intervention, allowing community and core contributors to focus on higher-value initiatives.
Project Overview and Team Experience
Cookbook.dev is a San-Francisco based blockchain and AI startup supporting the Cookbook.dev Onboard suite for over 60 blockchain protocols. Our team is mostly made up of solidity engineers who deeply understand and empathize with the challenges faced by developers in the blockchain industry.
Rational
By providing an intuitive, battle-tested path for developers to begin learning and building on Moonbeam through Cookbook.dev’s AI assistant and code playground, we pave the way for more Dapps on the network that ultimately contribute to TVL, Fees, and value accruing to the Moonbeam token.
Overall Cost
The overall cost is $7,000 USD in Moonbeam tokens for 1 year of service for the AI assistant, the code playground environment with smart contract templates and the Chain info tab along with access to the admin panel for the Moonbeam team.
Use of Treasury Funds
The treasury funds will be used for:
- The initial setup and integration of the AI assistant, code playground and chain info tab.
- Ongoing hosting and maintenance costs.
- Technical support and monitoring to ensure optimal performance.
Specifications
The integration will be completed via an open source contribution by the Cookbook.dev team into the Moonbeam docs repo on github. Once reviewed and merged, the integration will be complete, live and active, with the Moonbeam team managing the tool through an admin panel provided by the Cookbook.dev team.
Expected Impact
- Faster onboarding for new developers.
- Increased adoption and development activity on Moonbeam.
- Reduction in support overhead for community managers and core contributors.
- Improved accessibility of Moonbeam documentation for a global audience.
