COURSE DESCRIPTION

This second course of the Blockchain Developer program will help you design, code, deploy and execute a smart contract – the computational element of blockchain technology. Smart contracts allow for implementing user-defined operations of arbitrary complexity that are not possible through plain cryptocurrency protocols. They allow users to implement conditions, rules and policies of the domain applications. Smart contracts are a powerful feature that, when properly designed and coded, can result in autonomous, efficient and transparent systems.

LEARNING OUTCOMES

• Understand the role, structure and principles of smart contracts in the blockchain platform
• Understand the Solidity language platform in building smart contracts with Ethereum Virtual Machine
• Understand how to build and develop smart contracts on the blockchain platform
• Understand the best practices in assessing the appropriateness of blockchain solutions
• Practice developing and deploying smart contracts
