Getting Started with Ethereum

Více o knize

Get started with blockchain development through this step-by-step guide that covers everything from installing necessary software to writing, testing, and deploying smart contracts. The book explores technologies associated with Ethereum, including IPFS, Filecoin, ENS, Chainlink, Truffle, Ganache, OpenZeppelin, Pinata, Fleek, Infura, Metamask, and Opensea. Author Davi Bauer guides you through project creation, compilation, network configuration, and smart contract deployment. The focus is on practical coding rather than just concepts, allowing you to engage with various Ethereum-related technologies beyond Solidity. By the end, you'll be equipped to confidently develop and deploy smart contracts on blockchains. Source code is available at https://github.com/Apress/getting-started-ethereum. You will learn about asset tokenization, including NFTs, using Ethereum; hosting censorship-resistant applications with IPFS; deploying on second-layer blockchains like Polygon; and utilizing multiple technologies for smart contract deployment. This guide is ideal for off-chain developers looking to transition to on-chain development with Ethereum and its related technologies, requiring prior programming knowledge and a conceptual understanding of blockchain.
