Creating an Ethereum Blockchain using Solidity

This course teaches you about Ethereum blockchain technology, as well as how to create smart contracts using Solidity. It begins by distinguishing between Ethereum and Ether as well as Bitcoin and Ethereum Classic. This is followed by an explanation of smart contracts, ‘gas’ (or fees), Ethereum mining, and virtual machines (VM). The first module concludes with demonstrations on how to install Ethereum on various platforms, as well as how to set up Remix IDE, which makes it possible to create smart contracts on the Web.

The material proceeds to cover Solidity by introducing the language, and explaining the process of creating simple contracts, writing comments, and creating conditional statements and loops. This part also explains the data types and units that are used in Solidity. You learn how to create functions, arrays, structs, enums, and other Solidity features that are vital to the process of creating Ethereum smart contracts. The course concludes with explanations of concepts like contract inheritance, abstract contracts, constructor arguments, assessor functions, and events.

This short course is suited to those interested in learning about Ethereum blockchain, or blockchain technology in general, as well as individuals wanting to know how to develop smart contracts with Solidity. Ethereum is a highly versatile blockchain technology since its uses far exceed conventional cryptocurrency applications.
