Ah, see. if that was clear from the start. That would explain a lot. As it was explained to me as a CTF. And it confused me on what it was trying to do.
It would be badass if the game turned into a bug finding platform to share ideas and security patterns. That would get a lot of attention. With mini tools helping you in the browser.
"The ultimate playground for medium to advanced security researchers and developers to send each other challenges."
Then we should think about new ways to educate people.
I've gone through some of your post, they are great, thanks!
Not only the actual community but as @redragonx said, also everyday programmer. Having beginners use ehernaut will cause Zeppelin to grow as a brand.
There is no need to change the original objective of the project, it could easily be adapted to be an educational tool. Witch it unintentionally became, it only needs to be a little more gentle on the learning curve. Some small changes could help.
Order levels on growing difficulty
Adding the resources we talked about to the help tab in ethernaut.
This could very easily be done, it seems like a good place to start.
I reviewed the "Add support for other languages" PR, I haven't heard of the anything back, so I sent an email, if it does not respond I will do the changes my self.
I've started a new thread category on the changes proposed to the help tab.
I've made some notes on the initials levels, but they are not nearly ready and @tinchoabbate are much better anyways.
Maybe we can have a collection of solutions instead of a single "community suggested" solution, and include @tinchoabbate's as well the ‘Nicole Zhu series’ . Then, we can identify the levels without a proper walkthrough and write those.
Yes this is great, very simple, gather curated resources from the community. Where would you place them? Here at the forum, or rather at the Ethernaut page?
