What exists today, and what this does differently

Why own your own

A productized combination of existing Sui onboarding and completion badges.

Closest things out there

Official Sui first-package guides walk through a first publish, and Metaschool's Sui track issues an NFT credential on completion.

Checked with web searches in October 2026. A search is not proof that nothing similar exists, and the market moves fast, so we recheck before every build.

What you own

The whole app, not a starter kit.

The complete Move Starter app: developers ship their first Move package on Sui or Aptos from their own wallet, understand every line, and earn a badge only for code they changed, with a paywall built in.

BLUEPRINT

Why it matters and how it really works

The recipe (how it is built, the data, costs, risks, build order, the pitch and the demo script) is unlocked when your app is paid in full.

The need

Web2 developers want to build on Move chains like Sui and Aptos, but tutorials let them copy and publish code they cannot explain, and completion badges often prove attendance rather than skill.

What exists and what is new

This already exists in parts. Official Sui first-package guides walk through a first publish, and Metaschool's Sui track issues an NFT credential on completion. Research verdict: exists, low novelty. This app is a productized combination: a guided first deploy from the learner's own wallet, error explanations mapped to the language they already use, and a badge that only mints when the package differs from the template and a test passes.

Why own Move Starter

Move is a different language from Solidity, and most web2 developers bounce off the first package publish. Move Starter gets a real package live on Sui from the developer's own wallet, explains the objects they just created, and hands them a builder badge. Owning it makes you the go to on ramp into Move for your community, with your name on the flow, your wallet on the deploys and the fees from every cohort.

What’s stopping you?

“I don't know Move myself. Can I run this?”

Yes, and you will learn by running it. The package template, deploy guide and builder page are built. Publish your own package first using the guide, read the explanation it gives, and you will understand more Move than most of the people you help on day one.

“Sui already has free onboarding docs. Why would anyone pay?”

Free docs suit people who already know what they are doing. Your buyers are developers who tried the docs and stalled, bootcamps that want a ready flow, and communities that want a branded path. You sell speed, clarity and a person to ask.

“Will publishing a package get people an airdrop?”

Never promise that. Publishing builds real skill and a verifiable record of shipping on Sui or Aptos. Airdrops are never guaranteed and you should say so on the page.

“What if Sui or Aptos upgrades break the template?”

It can happen. Test a publish on each supported network every month, pin the toolchain version in your guide, and post a status note when something changes.

“Is it really mine?”

Yes. The app runs on your account and repo, deploys from your wallet, and builder badges are issued under your name.

The million-dollar ladder

Developers pay a small fee for the guided first package and builder badge, and bootcamps, university clubs and Move communities pay per learner for branded cohorts. Later, paid follow on modules (second object, a coin, a simple marketplace) lift revenue per learner.
