How does your tool help with learning bitcoin script? Does it teach me the script types in Bitcoin? Does it give me an ide for running scripts? Does it go into miniscript at all?
reply
It provides help in both reading & writing script so that developers can understand the applicable use-case within transactions.
Currently the site is split into two main sections (learn & develop). The former leans toward an educational platform with articles that introduce the basics of scripts & documentation on common ops & scripts. The latter part of the site is more akin to developer tools with a transaction deserializer that highlights script within the raw hex & with a sandbox IDE that displays the status of the stack as script is executed.

Learn script? hmmm maybe not? But a necessity for working on Bitcoin.
Learn how script is a critical part of inputs & how inputs are a critical part of a transaction? Yes! Needed to understand Bitcoin under the hood.

How much are the memberships? and could bitcoiners try just for a month to test?

We're still very much iterating on pricing strategy since there are a few incentives we want to balance but currently, there's three tiers:
  1. Free (no email / sign-up required)
  2. Beginner Bob ($20/Mo or flat fee)
  3. Advanced Alice ($80/Mo or flat fee)
It's tricky because we're finding that servicing teams/following a b2b path will yield more subscriptions, but on principle, we want to keep a majority of the site free/available to the individual/freelancer.
