Cardano’s 2025 Developer Ecosystem Survey invites developers to share feedback on tools, libraries, and adoption. The survey will guide improvements to Cardano developer tooling and documentation while informing ecosystem priorities for DeFi growth and Web3 integrations.
Cardano developer survey 2025: Share feedback on tools, libraries, and adoption to shape Cardano’s roadmap — participate now.
The Cardano 2025 Developer Ecosystem Survey is an annual questionnaire run by the Cardano Foundation to collect developer feedback on tools, libraries, documentation, and adoption barriers. Results will inform prioritization of tooling updates, documentation improvements, and ecosystem funding decisions.
The survey asks developers to rate usability and effectiveness of existing tools such as the Cardano Signer and libraries for building dApps. Responses will highlight high-impact enhancements — for example, requests for a command-line interface for Cardano Signer — enabling the Foundation and ecosystem contributors to roadmap prioritized upgrades.
Cardano’s DeFi Total Value Locked (TVL) increased by 37% over three months, now exceeding $350 million. Growth is concentrated in lending protocols and DEX activity; Liqwid currently holds more than 30% of Cardano’s announced TVL, underscoring concentrated liquidity in core protocols.
Higher TVL signals growing user trust and protocol adoption, which attracts developer attention and investment. For builders, increased TVL can mean more composability, better liquidity for dApps, and new opportunities for integrations and revenue models.
Developers, protocol teams, dApp builders, technical contributors, and technical community members should take the survey to ensure diverse technical perspectives inform Cardano’s tooling roadmap and ecosystem priorities.
The Cardano-NEAR collaboration focuses on AI and blockchain integrations that may yield new developer tools and cross-chain primitives. Expect joint research, shared tooling insights, and potential interoperability patterns benefiting builders on both networks.
The Cardano 2025 Developer Ecosystem Survey is a timely mechanism to shape the platform’s next phase by centering developer experience. With DeFi TVL climbing and strategic partnerships forming, input from builders will directly influence tool improvements, documentation, and priorities across the Cardano ecosystem. Participate to help define the path forward.
