Blockchain and Ethereum Smart Contract Solution Development: Dapp Programming with Solidity

Build decentralized applications with smart contract programming. Following the curriculum from an active blockchain course taught by the author at the McCombs School of Business at the University of Texas, this book fills the gaps for you from learning about basic cryptocurrency uses of blockchain to understanding smart contracts and dapps.

You'll first start by understanding the basics of blockchain technology. Take a business point of view to discover general concepts about blockchains and dapps or "decentralized apps" built off of smart contracts. Next, learn about the token economy, how to design tokens, and relevant client technologies, such as web3, metamask, and UI/UX design. Then, install a blockchain node yourself.

With a basic understanding of blockchain applications and business uses, you'll move further into hands-on development. There are ten modules for hands-on smart contract programming covered to build your own decentralized applications. Several team projects built end-to-end from concept to deployment to operation are also provided. Using these models and your own original work, you'll build a smart contract development environment, practice Solidity programming, compile source code, perform security reviews, and deploy bytecode to blockchains.

The breakthrough in blockchain technology has empowered novel ecosystems and applications in the areas of Decentralized Finance (DeFi), Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC), Non-Fungible Tokens (NFT), Decentralized Autonomous Organization (DAO), and more. Blockchain and Ethereum Smart Contract Solution Development will prepare you to create fantastic applications using Ethereum's smart contracts and solid concepts of decentralized programming!

What You'll Learn

• Become familiar with Blockchain technology, both in theory and in practice
  
• Understand architectural components of blockchain and the underlying computer science
  
• Implement blockchain smart contract solutions using both public and enterprise Ethereum blockchains
  

Who This Book Is For

IT professionals and mid-level managers interested in smart contract development. Blockchain Consultants who want to have a handbook of smart contract development methodologies. And enterprise technologiests helping companies through the transformation to blockchain technologies.

使用智能合約編程來建立去中心化應用程式。本書根據作者在德克薩斯大學麥康姆斯商學院教授的一門活躍的區塊鏈課程的課程大綱，填補了從了解區塊鏈的基本加密貨幣用途到理解智能合約和去中心化應用程式之間的差距。

首先，您將從了解區塊鏈技術的基礎知識開始。從商業角度出發，探索有關區塊鏈和基於智能合約構建的去中心化應用程式（dapps）的一般概念。接下來，了解代幣經濟學，如何設計代幣以及相關的客戶端技術，例如web3、metamask和UI/UX設計。然後，自己安裝一個區塊鏈節點。

在對區塊鏈應用和商業用途有基本了解之後，您將進一步進入實踐開發。本書涵蓋了十個模塊的實踐智能合約編程，以建立自己的去中心化應用程式。還提供了從概念到部署到運營的幾個團隊項目。使用這些模型和您自己的原創作品，您將建立一個智能合約開發環境，練習Solidity編程，編譯源代碼，進行安全審查，並將字節碼部署到區塊鏈上。

區塊鏈技術的突破使得在去中心化金融（DeFi）、中央銀行數字貨幣（CBDC）、非同質化代幣（NFT）、去中心化自治組織（DAO）等領域出現了新的生態系統和應用。《區塊鏈和以太坊智能合約解決方案開發》將使您能夠使用以太坊的智能合約和去中心化編程的堅實概念創建出色的應用程式！

您將學到什麼：
- 熟悉區塊鏈技術的理論和實踐
- 了解區塊鏈的架構組件和底層計算機科學
- 使用公共和企業以太坊區塊鏈實施區塊鏈智能合約解決方案

適合對智能合約開發感興趣的IT專業人士和中級管理人員。區塊鏈顧問希望擁有智能合約開發方法論的手冊。以及幫助企業實現區塊鏈技術轉型的企業技術人員。
