Visual Concepts & Analogies
📊 Key Visual Narratives
1. The Evolution of Programming
1950s: Machine Code → Experts only, punch cards
1970s: Assembly → Experts only, basic programs
1980s: C → Thousands can build
1990s: Java/Python → Millions can build
2000s: JavaScript → Everyone can build
2009: Bitcoin → Digital gold (script only, no apps)
2015: Ethereum → Back to assembly (Solidity, experts only)
2018: WASM chains → Can use Rust/C++ (still complex)
2020: Near/CosmWasm → Multiple languages (but limited)
2025: Amigos → Native Go, everyone can build (again)

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
📱 Messages 🏦 Uniswap
📷 Instagram 🏦 Compound
🎮 Chess 🏦 Aave
📝 Notion 🏦 MakerDAO
🎵 Spotify 💎 OpenSea
🗺️ Google Maps 🏦 Curve
📚 Kindle 🏦 SushiSwap
💬 WhatsApp 🦍 Bored Apes
"Where are the other 42 apps?"
3. The GitHub Unlock Effect
Before GitHub (2007) After GitHub (2008+)
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
SourceForge: 100K projects GitHub: 200M+ projects
Experts only Everyone contributes
Hidden in archives Social coding
Corporate dominated Individual driven
Before Amigos (2024) After Amigos (2025+)
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Complex dApps only Any app imaginable
Experts only Go developers welcome
Isolated contracts Composable services
Finance dominated Every industry
4. The Composability Difference
Ethereum Way: Amigos Way:
━━━━━━━━━━━ ━━━━━━━━━━
Copy code ❌ Import service ✅
Redeploy ❌ Reference live ✅
Audit again ❌ Trust original ✅
Pay gas 2x ❌ Pay once ✅

Title Slide
Visual: Split screen
- Left: Complex Ethereum code
- Right: Simple Go import
- Center: Amigos logo bridging them
Problem Slide
Visual: iPhone home screen with question marks where non-finance apps should be
- Grayed out icons for “Forum”, “Wiki”, “Games”, “Social”
- Only banking apps in color
Solution Slide
Visual: Before/After code comparison
// Ethereum (50 lines) // Amigos (5 lines)

🎭 Metaphors & Analogies
The Assembly → C Progression
“When C added #include, it didn’t replace Assembly - it unlocked what Assembly couldn’t build. Amigos adds import to blockchain.”
The iPhone Moment
“The iPhone didn’t invent phones, browsers, or music players. It made them accessible. Amigos is blockchain’s iPhone moment.”
The WordPress of Web3
“WordPress democratized web publishing. Amigos democratizes dApp development.”
The Docker for Smart Contracts
“Docker made ‘it works on my machine’ a solved problem. Amigos makes ‘it works on my blockchain’ just as simple.”

- Blank screen → Show empty file
- Import → Type:
import "forum" - Use → Create a post with 3 lines
- Deploy → One command
- Live → Show working forum
Visual impact: “I just built a forum in 3 minutes”

💡 Visual Best Practices
- Less is More: One concept per slide
- Show, Don’t Tell: Code > descriptions
- Consistent Metaphors: Assembly→C throughout
- Real Examples: Actual apps, not abstractions
- Emotional Connection: “Your apps, your users, your platform”
🎨 Design Guidelines
- Colors: Go blue (#00ADD8) meets Web3 purple
- Typography: Clean, modern, developer-friendly (JetBrains Mono for code)
- Icons: Consistent set mixing Web2 familiarity with Web3 innovation
- Animations: Subtle transitions showing composition/building
- White Space: Let concepts breathe
📸 Screenshot Concepts
- Amigos Hub: GitHub-like interface showing trending contracts
- Import Graph: Visual representation of package dependencies
- Live Editor: Split screen code/result like CodePen
- Network Status: Beautiful dashboard of chains/nodes
- Success Stories: Real dApps built on platform
