Thousands of new applications have been developed in the web3 ecosystem in recent years. Many new developers have started building here by learning blockchain-based software languages. However, building an application on a blockchain is not as easy as it seems. Developers are having serious difficulties understanding smart contracts and following blockchain languages that are changing every day and coming up with new features. According to various research data, there are nearly 30 million developers in all information technologies in the world today, while only 200 thousand are web3 and blockchain developers. In today's review, we will examine Ignite project in the Cosmos ecosystem, which will change this situation, and provide easy-to-use, blockchain development with various tools.

Ignite is a tool designed by the team involved in the development of Cosmos Tendermint that helps projects develop their own blockchain network through the CosmosSDK. Ignite allows developers to easily build blockchains thanks to ready-made command lines, ready-made tools, and kits. It's not just about providing code to developers. In less than 5 minutes, you can create a simple blockchain and connect to other blockchains via CosmosIBC. Ignite contributes to the planning of the whole process until it brings a good idea to life and makes it successful. It is already taking share from an active, vibrant market and reaching out to communities. It is very important to reach communities in the Web3 ecosystem. Communities are much more than a customer. Users who have tested your app also give you feedback for various improvements. Ignite helps you build your own community by testing your application by accessing these communities and the tools it offers to projects during the development phase.

In order to understand the importance of Ignite, it is necessary to examine the Cosmos ecosystem a little. Cosmos is an ecosystem that provides tools for applications to build their own blockchain network and connect them to each other through IBC. What does it mean for an application to have its own network? Applications are subject to the characteristics and rules of the blockchain network on which they are built. For example, to swap in a DeFi application on Ethereum, you pay the transaction fee on the Ethereum network and your transaction takes place at the speed of the Ethereum network. This is the same in other networks. When it comes to Cosmos, each app has its own blockchain network. Thus, Cosmos encourages projects to have their own network; to act flexibly and independently in all their operations.

Ignite has a large number of practical software kits, lines of code, bots, and resources; compared to popular software languages and business lines such as Java, and C languages. This saves developers a lot of time. On the other hand, we know that in software languages such as Solidity in the web3 ecosystem, there is still a serious need for these kits, practical command lines, and even resources. Ignite responds to a critical need through the project development process and their contribution to the launch of Cosmos IBC. Ignite allows craftsmen who are trying to repair vehicles with a hammer and screwdriver to build freely by giving them a production and repair facility. Ignite encourages both more developers to incorporate the Web3 ecosystem and more projects to use the Cosmos ecosystem.

That's exactly why we're talking about Ignite for you.
