A Practical Introduction to Developing Web3 Apps Using Solidity and React
About the Book
Imagine building a project with someone. You are planning on monetizing this project by accepting payments in cryptocurrency. You would want to distribute the earnings fairly in between yourselves. Partnerly.co helps you do this. It is an app that helps you create a smart contract on the blockchain that can distribute the collected payments between two (or more) parties in a predetermined split ratio.
In this short book, I will share how I built Partnerly from scratch with you. First, we will learn how to create the smart contract that can be deployed on the Ethereum blockchain using Solidity and following the TDD methodology. Then, we will be looking at building a front-end for this contract using React in Next.js.
This book consists of two chapters. The first chapter is on building a smart contract using Solidity and Hardhat. The second chapter is about building the front end to deploy and interact with the smart contract. You can read the first chapter at Partnerly.co/Learn for free if you want to take a peek!
Disclaimer
I am not a Blockchain developer. In fact, I am just learning this stuff myself. However, I am a software developer and an educator who taught programming from scratch to thousands of students. I can't claim that you will become a Blockchain development expert by just following this book, but I am pretty confident that you will learn practical skills that will make this a valuable stepping stone in your journey.
