Comparative Study of Blockchain Development Platforms: Features and Applications (2210.01913v1)

Abstract: Many developers have ideas to create blockchain applications but do not know where to begin. Often these developers default to using the first blockchain development platform they discover, which may not be the best platform for their project. Over 8000 new blockchain-related projects are added to GitHub a year. The near-constant influx of new projects can make it difficult for developers to search through existing projects and platforms to find the best platform for their projects. We considered 65 blockchain development platforms for this work and provided a brief yet comprehensive summary of the 23 most popular platforms. Our aim for this work is to assist developers in selecting the most appropriate platform for their blockchain projects.
