Explore how JavaScript serves as a collections library to interact with local and remote data via websocket, and note API differences for this introduction to Web3 and dapp development.
Explore solidity, the object-oriented language for smart contracts on Ethereum, and learn its structure, including state variables, functions, events, and enums. Practice on Remix with gas fees for dapp development.
Learn Ethereum development through documentation and set up a local web3 environment in JavaScript. Install and import the web3 library, initialize it, and fetch the latest block number.
Install and update Solana tooling and binaries, set up Phantom wallet, and explore how transactions flow through a Solana cluster processed by validators, including delegating tokens via command-line steps.
Explore Solana utility via essential web3 commands, connect to a cluster, deploy a program, and validate actions as you build basic Solana dapps.
Explore how MetaMask enables fast cross-network Ethereum access for smart contract development, deployment, and testing, with contract addresses, ABI interfaces, and mobile support.
Explore public test networks for smart contract and Web3 development, use test credits to fund accounts, verify transactions, and apply the test funds to development projects.
Connect MetaMask to the Binance Smart Chain test network, set up testing environments, and obtain test tokens from a faucet to deploy smart contracts.
Deploy a smart contract on a test network using metamask or a JavaScript VM, observe gas costs, and confirm successful deployment and transaction execution.
Explore deploying a smart contract using plug-ins, a gas profiler, and a Solidity compiler, then compile, deploy, and verify contracts while managing transactions and funds.
Discover IPFS, an open, verifiable, and resilient platform for building decentralized applications, with developer friendly resources, a user interface, and peer-to-peer connections.

Fantom is a high-performance, scalable smart contract platform with an ecosystem for developing and deploying contracts, enabling DeFi, digital assets, banks, health care, and supply-chain solutions, using Truffle and Remix.
A smart contract is a self-executing contract with the terms of the agreement between buyer and seller being directly written into lines of code. The code and the agreements contained therein exist across a distributed, decentralized blockchain network.
Applications
In 1998, Szabo proposed that smart contract infrastructure can be implemented by replicated asset registries and contract execution using cryptographic hash chains and Byzantine fault-tolerant replication.[44] Askemos implemented this approach in 2002 using Scheme later adding SQLite as contract script language
One proposal for using bitcoin for replicated asset registration and contract execution is called "colored coins". Replicated titles for potentially arbitrary forms of property, along with replicated contract execution, are implemented in different projects.
As of 2015, UBS was experimenting with "smart bonds" that use the bitcoin blockchain in which payment streams could hypothetically be fully automated, creating a self-paying instrument.
Inheritance wishes could hypothetically be implemented automatically upon registration of a death certificate by means of smart contracts.[53][54] Birth certificates can also work together with smart contracts.
Smart contracts can also be used to handle real estate transactions (i.e. via Propy, ...)and blockchain solutions are also proliferating on the field of title records and in the public register.
Smart contracts can also be used in employment contracts, especially temporary employment contracts, offering benefits for both employer and employee.[
