Welcome to our comprehensive workshop, where we delve into the fascinating world of Actively Validated Services (AVS) using EL. This session, ideal for blockchain enthusiasts and developers, focuses on creating a straightforward yet fully functional AVS through our 'Incredible Squaring'.

The Incredible Squaring demonstration is designed as a minimum viable AVS with complete EigenLayer integration. It serves as an exemplary model showing how an offchain computation – in this instance, the square of a number – can be incorporated into the tasks that network operators are expected to perform. This workshop is a practical exploration into the intricacies of AVS within the blockchain ecosystem, emphasizing the pivotal role of offchain computations.

Throughout this hands-on session, participants will engage in:

• Building a simple AVS middleware, fully integrated with Eigenlayer.
• Understanding the workflow of offchain computations and their integral role in blockchain operations.
• Learning to obtain and aggregate multiple Operators' signatures for a computed value.
• Mastering the techniques to validate and inscribe the computed value onto the blockchain.

The workshop is not just about technical execution; it also provides a window into the relationship between AVS, core contracts like the 'DelegationManager', and overall blockchain network security. Attendees will depart with a comprehensive understanding of AVS functionality within the EigenLayer framework, along with insights into the broader implications for blockchain technology and network security.
