Smart Contracts

Solidity basics and contract structure.

Module Overview

Practical introduction to Solidity basics: contract skeletons, functions, state variables, events, and deployment lifecycle on testnets. Includes common patterns and safety considerations at a conceptual level.

Learning Objectives

  • Write minimal smart contracts with state variables and functions.
  • Compile and deploy to a testnet and interact with deployed contracts.
  • Recognize common vulnerability patterns at a high level.

Lesson-by-Lesson Breakdown

1

Solidity syntax and contract structure.

2

State management, functions, and events.

3

Local testing and simulation tools.

4

Deploying to a testnet and interacting with transactions.
