So you’ve heard about Avalanche. Maybe you’re new to blockchain. Maybe you’ve been in the space for a while and are ready to see what all the hype is about. Or maybe you’re already deep in the trenches, deploying contracts, spinning up subnets, and need better tools to go faster.

Wherever you're at in your journey, Builder Hub is where it all comes together.

This is Avalanche’s official home base for developers. Think docs, tooling, grants, events, starter kits, and legit pathways to scale your project. Whether you're just getting started or scaling something big, Builder Hub gives you the gear and the game plan.

Let me break it down:

New to Blockchain?

No stress. We’ve got you.

Builder Hub has curated Academy learning materials that explain the basics in a way that makes sense. Think less “textbook,” more “talking to a smart friend who wants to see you win.” You’ll go from zero to deploying your first smart contract way faster than you think.

Also, check the event page. It’s full of workshops, webinars, hackathons, and community calls to help you learn in real time and meet other people on the same path.

New to Avalanche?

You’ve built on EVM before, maybe deployed a thing or two on another chain, but Avalanche is new territory.

Start with the Avalanche Starter Kit. It’s got everything you need to get your first dApp live, fast: templates, walkthroughs, code snippets, even pre-built components.

Then hit the docs. Not just “how-to”, these docs are super developer-friendly and give you a real understanding of how Avalanche works under the hood. Subnets, consensus, validator setup, it’s all here.

Already Building on Avalanche? Here’s Where It Gets Fun.

This is the part I’m most excited about. Builder Hub isn’t just an intro space; it’s loaded with the kind of support that actually helps you ship:

Advanced Tooling Guides: Need to integrate AWM? Looking to deploy a custom VM? These guides are fire!
Hackathons: Whether you want to prototype something quick or go deep and win prizes, Builder Hub keeps you posted on all the upcoming bounties and IRL events.
Grants & Ecosystem Support: If you’re building something real—infra, tools, public goods—there’s money on the table. Builder’s Hub shows you how to apply, what teams are looking for, and how to stand out.
Integrations: Chainlink, The Graph, IPFS, you name it. Clear steps, clean code, less guesswork.
Builder Spotlights: Real devs, real projects. Learn what they built, how they did it, and what they’d do differently.

I recently used Builder Hub to work on a Subnet project. The tooling docs saved me HOURS. Instead of flipping through GitHub issues or piecing stuff together from 10 blog posts, everything I needed was just… there. It made building fun again.

TL;DR

Builder Hub is the home base for builders on Avalanche.

New to Blockchain? → Learn fast with Academy + Events
New to Avalanche? → Get started quick with Docs + Starter Kit
Already Building? → Scale with Tools, Hackathons, Grants + more

This isn’t just documentation, it’s your launchpad.
