Project Description
We propose integrating ChainIDE with the Secret Network to provide developers with seamless access to and utilization of Secret within our platform.
ChainIDE is an established and robust multi-chain cloud-powered development platform that provides one-stop development services for blockchain developers. By providing cloud-based user experiences, ChainIDE allows users to initiate decentralized application development instantly, eliminating the need for configurations or pre-installed software on local systems. It is designed to streamline the development process by providing a user-friendly interface and a suite of tools and services to help developers write, test, and deploy smart contracts and dApps.
Problem / Solution
ChainIDE addresses the fragmented developer tooling issue by offering an all-in-one integrated development environment (IDE). This enables developers to complete the entire dApp development lifecycle across various blockchain networks, including development, testing, publishing, release, and frontend development.
Developing smart contracts in languages such as Solidity, and deploying them across different networks is complex and time-consuming, requiring extensive knowledge of each network's unique features. The current tools available are often fragmented and require a high level of technical knowledge, which acts as a barrier to entry for new developers and slows down the development process for experienced ones.
ChainIDE simplifies this process, improves productivity, and provides a unified user experience, allowing easy migration of dApps between chains. Additionally, we offer an interactive user interface for all CLI tools, facilitating convenient testing and debugging of dApps.
In less developed regions, limited local communities and events restrict developers' access to resources for learning blockchain. To assist, we provide tools and developer services to guide them in using our platform effectively. Regular bootcamps, competitions, and workshops aim to attract active developers and build vibrant communities.
ChainIDE also aligns with Secret's roadmap for EVM developer kit by providing a multichain platform allowing developers to not only build dApps for Secret but also for over 14 chains including Ethereum, Arbitrum, and Binance Smart Chain.
ChainIDE will reduce the development overhead and simply integrate into Secret's docs as shown in the screenshot under Additional Resources:
ChainIDE for Secret will provide a large set of ready-to-use full-stack dApp templates. Developers can quickly build and launch various dApps and also create their own dApp templates for the community. ChainIDE also has full Github integration. This will help in wide developer adoption and promote open-source culture.
ChainIDE for Secret platform provides UI that looks familiar to VS Code allows developers to compile, test, deploy and interact with dApps - all in a single window, thus improving the development cycle. Developers can integrate their existing VS Code compatible plugins and access the terminal as shown in the screenshot below. These terminals connect to a remote sandbox environment running Linux VM.
Developers will have full sudo access to the sandbox to be able to install and modify the environment. In the above screenshot, the terminal is running the secretcli package to create a new secret wallet.
Additionally, ChainIDE Education platform is focused on high-quality developer education and provides courses for Solidity and full-stack dApps. We plan to introduce courses related to CosmWasm in future to boost Cosmos developer community and promote Secret community.

Go-to-Market plan
ChainIDE has been around for five years, building a solid reputation and gathering a bunch of users in the industry. The go-to-market plan for ChainIDE for Secret consists primarily of two components: attracting existing ChainIDE users to migrate their projects to the Secret network, and encouraging developers on the Secret network to utilize ChainIDE for improved development efficiency.
1. Leveraging our Established Developer Community
ChainIDE has already amassed a substantial community of developers, providing a solid foundation for introducing new builders to Secret .
