The Complete Guide to Full Stack Ethereum Development - Tutorial for Beginners

Next, we’ll create a couple of different smart contracts in Solidity, compile them, and deploy them to a local blockchain node that we will also initialize using Hardhat. We’ll then learn how to deploy the smart contracts to a real live test network.

We’ll then connect the React front end to allow users to read data from the blockchain as well as create transactions with MetaMask using test Ether that we create using accounts created by our local test environment.

Finally, we’ll learn how to create and mint real ERC20 tokens, as well as how to rapidly prototype smart contracts using the Remix IDE.

By the end of this guide, you should have a good understanding of how to build modern dApps with React and Solidity on the Ethereum blockchain.

thank you 🙏
I can't tell you how much time this video saved me. 💝

[TJTHEFOOTBALLPROPHET]

At the 5min in this video is when I realised I needed something that's truly for beginners.

[tallahpossible]

hey Nader! I'm so excited to see u on the blockchain! been following u since AWS! welcome and thank u so much for doing this!

[HaysStanford]

Hell yeah, been expecting to see more Ethereum content on YT. Nice job Nadar! 🔥

[Lcan]

Thank you so much for this video, Nader. Having many problems with Truffle, you saved me with Hardhat. Long life for you!

[francescociulla]

Thank you Nader this is what I was looking for

[kushagrakanodia]

Needed a refresher after coming back to doing blockchain dev after some time. just the revisit i needed.

[its_david_raz]

Amazing video Nader. I have learned so much from this tutorial!

[bitwisebytes]

"Not too smart, you should hold onto these things, but whatever." 😂

Great tutorial Nader, this was a really useful primer for me. I'll be diving deep on your blockchain content and Solidity By Example.

[johnm]

Great work Nader! This really clears up a few years of confusion. Well done!

[nishadpatne]

Thanks Nader!!
Until now I was in a stalemate over learning dApps. Every thing is out there, but very less resources teaching how to connect these dots.
But not anymore, with the concepts covered in this video any one willing to delve into dApps will find the right way.

[saidalbouti]

Great video bro👍not many contents out there covers the whole stack of blockchain app. Keep going💪🏻

[SergiuTalnaci]

Nice Nader, thanks for the comprehensive guide.

[azeezabidoye]

Let me keep it simple. You are life saver! Kudos 👍🏽

[khandoor]

Glad to see you with your new tech Nader. I guess I will be learning something new!

[josevelez]

Thank you so much for doing this. Stuff like this is really going to help a lot of us newbies get onboarded into smart contract development. Keep it up!

[raymondsiu]

I didn't know GSP knew how to code! Great content. Thank you!

[scriptnomad]

Nader, thanks so much for this rare and accessible tutorial using a sane and optimal stack. Was very helpful for me. I was able to follow and everything clicked. Kudos and good karma to you!

[techviking]

Great intro vid. Would love it if you do a continuation video for TESTING these contracts using Mocha, Chai, Hardhat-Waffle!

[jr-hper]

This is something quite unique, thank you so much, Nader, for taking efforts. Really appreciate.
