Such a developer must also be able to:
- package and deploy Fabric applications and smart contracts, perform end-to-end Fabric application life-cycle and smart contract management
- program in Java or Node.js (or Go for smart contracts)
Passing a performance-based exam demonstrates the candidate's ability to perform challenging real world tasks under time constaints.
