DSCVR Canvas introduces a framework that makes app creation accessible to developers of all levels, from experienced engineers to students just starting to learn Javascript. The platform offers a user-friendly interface that simplifies the development process, allowing anyone to build dynamic and interactive applications without advanced technical skills. Canvas is also compatible with existing Frames and Solana Blinks, allowing developers in these ecosystems to easily share their apps on DSCVR.
