Have you wondered how blockchain can help you create applications that offer greater transparency, traceability, efficiency, and resilience while lowering your costs? This course, fourth in a series of eleven, goes in-depth on the tools you need to develop your code.
Instructor Michael Solomon walks you through the tools you’ll need from your Ethereum development toolbox, such as the blockchain client (EVM), local and public test blockchains, and more. Michael shows you how to download and install Go Ethereum (Geth), the command-line interface blockchain client. Then he steps through installing Ganache, the test blockchain that you will use in this course; Truffle, the development environment and testing framework; and Microsoft Visual Studio Code, a free integrated development environment (IDE).
