Introducing Web3
In this chapter, we will explore Web3 API. Also, we will see detailed examples on how smart contracts are written, tested, and deployed to the Ethereum blockchain. We will use various tools such as Remix IDE and Ganache to develop and test smart contracts. We will also look at the methods to deploy smart contracts to Ethereum test network and private networks. We will also learn that how HTML and JavaScript frontends can be developed to interact with smart contracts deployed on the blockchain.
We will start with Web3 first and gradually build our knowledge by using various tools and techniques for smart contract development. Finally, we will develop a project using all the techniques that we have learned.
