-
79
-
-**Protocol Developers**: Explore the Polkadot Hub and Parachains sections to understand the underlying architecture and consensus mechanisms.
80
-
-**Parachain Builders**: Start with the Parachains section to understand chain design, then dive into specific topics like consensus, data encoding, and interoperability.
81
-
-**Network Participants**: Review the On-Chain Governance section to understand how to participate in Polkadot's decision-making.
82
-
-**Application Developers**: Focus on the Tools section and the Parachains documentation to build dApps and interact with the network.
