<a href="https://studio.astar.network/landing" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Astar Studio</a>, a user-friendly web3 developer&nbsp;platform&nbsp;built&nbsp;on <a href="https://docs.astar.network/docs/learn/zkEVM/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Astar zkEVM</a> and driven by <a href="https://sequence.xyz?utm_source=PR&amp;utm_medium=PR&amp;utm_campaign=Astar_pr_home&amp;utem_term=&amp;utm_content=" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Sequence technology</a>, officially launches today.
The Astar zkEVM is a Polygon CDK-built, next-gen zero-knowledge Layer 2 (L2) blockchain scaling solution. On Astar Network, the leading blockchain platform in Japan, it is the first L2 to integrate&nbsp;with the AggLayer to boost&nbsp;web3 gaming and enterprise&nbsp;applications.
The official Astar zkEVM “Developer Console” solution, powered by Sequence, is unveiled by Astar Studio. By directly empowering developers with creativity and control, Astar Studio seeks to expedite the development of web3 projects while increasing user loyalty and community involvement. The trading and selling of digital collectibles by Astar Studio also creates new revenue&nbsp;streams via primary and secondary markets. Modular components inside the white label solution help improve user acquisition, growth, monetization, and retention strategies.
Plug-and-play tools like configurable UI kits for integrated smart wallets, payment flows for game analytics, transaction APIs, gas sponsorship mechanisms, indexers, and more—including Unity, Unreal Engine, and mobile SDKs—are all included in Astar Studio.
Shaun Wang, Chief Technology Officer at Astar Network stated:
<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow">
 “The integration with Sequence is going to be very beneficial for the developers building on Astar zkEVM. By combining Astar zkEVM with Sequence’s development platform, we’re empowering developers to build next-generation web3 dApps in easy mode. This partnership fosters a smooth and familiar development experience while ensuring low transaction fees and scalability. We’re excited to see the innovative and engaging experiences that developers will create with Astar Studio and look forward to working with Sequence”.
</blockquote>
In order to support the expansion of the Astar zkEVM ecosystem, Astar and Sequence will collaborate to offer&nbsp;a unique Astar Studio Credit Grant worth a total of $200,000 USD&nbsp;Astar Studio credit. Any of the developer tools in Astar Studio may be utilized with this granted credit. Sequence and Astar will collaborate to choose the projects that will be funded and to decide how much credit will be given to each project.
Issei Kashima, APAC Business Development and Partnerships Manager at Sequence stated:
<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow">
 “Integrating Astar zkEVM into Sequence Builder allows developers to start building within Astar’s growing ecosystem with their same workflows and our familiar tools and SDKs. <a href="https://studio.astar.network/landing" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Astar Studio</a> gives Astar developers the tools needed in an end-to-end development platform under Astar’s brand, eliminating the steep learning curves needed from using alternative fragmented web3 solutions. This powerful combination empowers developers to focus on crafting truly engaging user experiences. The cherry on top is our joint credit grant program, fueling the creation of groundbreaking web3 games and experiences on Astar zkEVM. We believe this partnership will be a major catalyst for the growth of web3 gaming and the Astar ecosystem.”
