Why Prompt Engineering Matters in Web3 Development Prompting isn’t just for ChatGPT memes. In Web3 development, it can save you hours of time. But only if you do it right. Here's how to prompt like a dev ⚒️👇 🧠 Treat the AI like a junior dev who knows everything… but needs guidance. No context = garbage output. 🧱 Always specify: • Blockchain (e.g., Ethereum, Solana) • Language (Solidity, Rust, Move) • Stack (React, ethers.js, wagmi) • Version (ethers v6 ≠ v5) ❌ Bad: “Write a smart contract” ✅ Good: “Write an ERC-20 token contract in Solidity using OpenZeppelin, with minting + pausable, for deployment on Polygon.” 🧪 Use a step-by-step approach: • Ask for contract first • Then write tests • Then connect with frontend • Then optimize It’s easier to debug in chunks. 📦 Bonus tip: Mention your library versions. Code for ethers v5 might break on v6. Same with wagmi v2 vs v1.

The Perfect Prompt Template for Web3 Coders Want to write better prompts for AI coding help? Here’s a simple fill-in-the-blank prompt template for Web3 projects 👇 🔧 "I am building a [type of app] using [tech stack]. Write a [component/function/contract] in [language] for [specific task], using [library or pattern]. Assume I’m using [blockchain/testnet], and output only code with brief inline comments." 📦 Example: “I’m building a dApp in React using wagmi v2 and ethers v6. Write a hook that allows users to mint an ERC-721 NFT via a smart contract. Use viem for reading state.” 📜 This gets you: • Relevant code • Proper imports • Compatible version • Cleaner results 💬 Want test coverage? Add: “Also generate unit tests using Hardhat.” 💡 Prompting is coding — just at a higher level. Master it, and you unlock 10x output. 🔁 Share this if you’re building smarter with AI.
