The article discusses the growing interest in smart contracts, highlighting that while Solidity on Ethereum is the most recognized starting point, there are alternative blockchain platforms and programming languages worth exploring. Notably, The Open Network (TON), created by Telegram, supports multiple languages for smart contract development, including Tact, FunC, and Fift. The author has chosen to focus on Tact for building a voting contract, emphasizing the importance of understanding these alternatives for developers looking to expand their skills beyond the widely used Ethereum ecosystem.
Solidity may be the most well-known language for smart contracts, but TON with Tact offers a fast and community-driven alternative for developing decentralized applications.
The TON ecosystem features multiple languages like FunC and Fift that cater to various use cases, each requiring different levels of understanding of the underlying technology.
