Description
Welcome to this updated and practical course for learning Ethereum Blockchain Development and Solidity Programming Language, taught by a Software Engineer and Professional Trainer.
Just starting out with Ethereum Smart Contracts Development and Solidity Programming? Perfect. This course starts out assuming you're new to these technologies.
Or maybe you've already tried to learn Ethereum Blockchain Development and Solidity Programming by yourself and now you want to put all pieces together? I'm here to help you, this course has everything you need to know about Ethereum Blockchain Development and Solidity Programming Language.
You'll have life time access and you can return and look for a specific Ethereum feature or Solidity syntax anytime you want.
All presentations and Ethereum Smart Contracts used in this course are available for download.
Many Ethereum Smart Contracts such as the ERC20 Token, the ICO etc are ready to be used with none or very little changes.
There are many courses on Ethereum Blockchain Development and Solidity Programming. Why should you learn from me?
I'm a Practitioner and a Blockchain Enthusiast. Welcome to the real world! I have almost 20 years experience as a Full Stack Developer. Since I've started with Ethereum and Blockchain Development, I've been using or studying the technology almost on a daily basis.
I'm an Educator and I know how to make a syllabus. For the last 10 years I've trained thousands of people on Linux, Networking, Security or Programming.
This course doesn't cover JavaScript Frameworks, Front-Ends or details about Web3 interaction with the Ethereum Blockchain. It's focused on Back-End Smart Contracts Development.
TESTIMONIALS
"Very detailed and well explained. Andrei completely broke down the barriers to understand Solidity programming, so many basics that are fundamental to understanding this tech was clearly explained. Very Impressive!" by Peter Olisa
"Highly recommended course. Goes directly to the point, explaining many examples of real-life smart contracts. Instead of a lot of JavaScript front-end programming, as other courses, it goes directly to dApp development. Very useful indeed." by Jose Ferdandez
"The course is well structured and really in-depth. The instructor does a really good job explaining the concepts, with examples. I would recommend this course to anyone interested in the subject." by Andrei Buiu

I've been a Network and Software Engineer for over 15 years, the typical profile of a DevOps Engineer.
I've cofounded Crystal Mind Academy, a Cisco Academy and professional training center in Romania, that focuses on teaching cutting-edge technologies to students.
I have contributed to education in areas of programming, information security and operating systems. During the last 15 years more than 30,000 thousand students have participated in-person or online training programs at Crystal Mind Academy.
I have developed documentation, labs and case studies for many training programs such as Cisco CCNA, CCNA Security, CCNP, Linux Administration, Information Security, Python Programming, Network Automation with Python or Blockchain Programming (Ethereum/Solidity) which have been successfully attended by thousands over the years.
When I'm not working, I crossfit, read a good book, enjoy a good time or travel with my wife and children.
