Blueprints + AI prompts

Starter kits: ship a Dogecoin project this weekend

Each kit is a real project spec: what you're building, why the architecture is shaped that way, and a detailed prompt you can paste into Claude Code (or any AI coding tool) to scaffold the whole thing. The AI writes the boilerplate; the kit makes sure you understand what it wrote. Everything targets testnet until you've read the production checklist.

Discord Tip Bot

The classic Dogecoin project: tip your friends DOGE in chat.

A custodial Discord bot with an internal ledger: on-chain deposits and withdrawals, instant free tips between users, hard safety limits. This kit assumes the architecture from the tip-bot lesson and builds all of it on testnet.

Dogecoin Payment Button

A self-hosted "Pay with Dogecoin" button for any web page.

A tiny Flask backend that issues per-order invoices against your own node (fresh address + QR code), plus a drop-in JavaScript snippet that shows payment status live. No processor, no percentage, no permission needed.

DOGE Price Widget

A cached, embeddable price + conversion widget for any site.

A tiny server-side proxy that caches CoinGecko's free API (so a thousand visitors cost you one upstream call) and a self-contained JS widget showing the DOGE price and a two-way USD converter. Utility, not a ticker for speculation - and it runs on any shared PHP host.

Node Ops Dashboard

One page that tells you your Dogecoin node is healthy.

A single-file Flask dashboard for the node you built in Track 1: sync status, peers, mempool, wallet balance, and recent transactions, auto-refreshing. The "hello world" of Dogecoin ops - and the monitoring seed the production checklist asks for.

How to use a kit well

Read the kit's linked lessons first (or at least after) – the prompt builds a working app, but the lessons are what let you maintain one. When yours works, put it on the map: student projects with honest READMEs are exactly what the directory is for.

On the map

Built something on Dogecoin? Put it on the map.

The directory is the page people link when someone says Dogecoin has no developers. If you maintain a library, wallet, tool, or app – even a small one – it belongs here.
