Gui Bibeau, the education lead at the Solana Foundation and a prominent YouTuber in the blockchain space, just dropped an exciting announcement on X (formerly Twitter). He's kicking off his first live stream focused on building a Solana dev platform, complete with reviews of newly submitted templates. This is big news for anyone in the meme token world, where Solana's speed and low costs make it a hotspot for launching viral projects.
In his tweet, Gui shared that the stream went live on October 7, 2025, at 2:30 PM Eastern Time. He linked to the YouTube session titled "Building a Solana Dev Platform," which you can catch here: Watch the Stream. If you missed it, don't worry—the replay should be available on his channel, where he regularly shares quick, high-quality content for developers.
For those new to the term, a "dev platform" in the Solana ecosystem refers to tools and frameworks that make it easier to build decentralized applications (dApps). Think of it as a set of building blocks that speed up development. Templates are pre-made code snippets or starter kits that devs can customize. In the context of meme tokens, these could help you quickly set up token minting, liquidity pools, or even fun features like airdrops tied to viral trends.
Gui's background makes this stream particularly worthwhile. With experience at Vercel, MetaMask, and Udacity, plus his role at Solana Foundation, he's all about onboarding the next wave of builders. He's also part of Superteam Canada, a group fostering Solana growth in the region. His content often breaks down complex topics like Rust programming for Solana smart contracts or using AI in web3 development—stuff that's directly applicable to creating meme tokens that stand out.
One reply to the tweet came from @0xSrMessi, a full-stack dev and founder of @0xCryptoUFOs, who simply said, "Lets build." That enthusiasm captures the spirit of the Solana community, where collaboration drives innovation. If you're tinkering with meme ideas, streams like this can provide the technical edge you need.
Head over to Gui's YouTube channel for more videos on Solana development. Whether you're a beginner looking to deploy your first token or a seasoned creator optimizing for scalability, resources like this are gold.
