Introduction to Smart Contracts with Ethereum and Solidity
Smart Contracts are programs stored on the blockchain that run when certain conditions are fulfilled.
These Smart Contracts have many benefits to them such as speed, transparency, and security. The contract is immediately run as soon as the requirements are fulfilled. All parties involved are privy to the contract's conditions and have access to the encrypted records. Plus, since the records are encrypted, it makes them more resistant to hacking.
Noah will show you how to write, test, and deploy smart contracts on Ethereum, using the popular smart contract language, Solidity. You'll also learn how to use Foundry, a popular dev-toolbelt, to streamline our whole development process.
Throughout this course, you'll learn how to:
- safely and securely set up Smart Contracts
- write and read data on your Smart Contract
- send transactions with specific arguments to your Smart Contract
- deploy your Smart Contract using Forge and QuickNode
And more!

A really good introduction to smart contracts. It gives a good notion about the whole workflow.
- Austin Asoluka2 years agoWhat did you like about this course?
Quite simple to follow but for an absolute beginner, this won't really help.
I did not know what Ethereum is nor the concept of a smart contract.
After this course, I still do not know kinda
- Jens Mikkelsen2 years agoWhat did you like about this course?
Concise and to the point, of course there is a lot more to learn but if you want a quick hands on introduction it does a very good job.

Nice course, I liked it very much. Foundry was new to me. Would worth a compare agains hardhat. Nice job anyway Noah!
- Giuseppe2 years agoWhat did you like about this course?
Short and to the point. Windows setup is a bit more complex (installing from the sources) but after upgrading to the latest rust version everything worked as expected.
