In building smart contracts a very common thing you will need to do is add dependencies to take advantage of code other people have already written. One of the most common dependencies/smart contract libraries to use is OpenZeppelin's contracts. They...
From Paradigm's website: Foundry is a portable, fast, and modular toolkit for Ethereum application development, written in Rust. Our goal with Foundry is to create the best developer experience for building secure smart contracts on EVM chains. Most...
In my post for Ethernaut Level 1 Fallback I mentioned: What did I learn from this? Setting the owner of your contract is a point of vulnerability. If there is anything about transferring ownership of a contract that needs to written carefully and te...
I found a YouTube series that goes over the Ethernaut challenges from OpenZepplin that teach people more about writing secure smart contracts Level 1 can be found here: https://ethernaut.openzeppelin.com/level/0x9CB391dbcD447E645D6Cb55dE6ca23164130D0...
Hardhat already comes with a sample deploy script called "sample-script.js" if you choose the Create a Basic Project Option when starting your Hardhat project. Its pretty simple. Basically it gets a Contract Factory, which is a lot like what it sou...

For most developers this is basic. But I think its worth covering all bases and making sure something so important like this can be found for newbie developers. This continues from my previous post on Setting Up a Dotenv file for environment variable...
This continues from my Setting up a Hardhat Project post. In order to actually submit transactions to the blockchain, and when we are ready to deploy a contract, we need to submit our transaction to an Ethereum node (that runs an ETH client and the E...
This is a simple thing really, but for my own practice and to just further make it second nature for myself I think its worth it for me to document the process of setting up a hardhat project. A basic but critical skill for a Web 3 Dev. First in Term...
