    Welcome to Starting with EOS. This course details the fundamental concepts of EOS blockchain technology so you can begin creating your very own advanced smart contracts and crypto projects that enable distributed, blockchain applications. EOS is a new generation blockchain platform and all of its amazing features, including sub-second transaction approvals and smart contracts are accessible through an easy to SDK that we will work with as we familiarize ourselves with EOS and it's newest production release.  If you're new to blockchain technology in general, don't worry.  We'll cover blockchain fundamentals so when we begin studying EOS and it's mechanics, features, and implementation, we'll understand the concepts and theory behind it all.  We'll understand how EOS uses a unique Delgated Proof of Stake (DPOS) mechansim to secure its blockchain and we'll learn to work directly with EOS's highly configurable accounts and the permission layers that secure them and with EOS's smart contract capabilities.  When we are familiar enough with blockchain tech and EOS's implementation of it, we'll go heads down and begin learning how to use EOS's amazing CLI tool and SDK to programatically do everything that can be done on the EOS platform.  Dive in now and immerse yourself in EOS and all of its advanced smart asset features and position yourself for the continuing blockchain revolution!

Requirements

  • Before taking this course, a student should ideally (but not absolutely) have some experience in:
  • Creating applications with Javascript, Java, C++, or another major programming language/platform
  • Some exposure to cryptocurrencies, either via the markets or from a technical standpoint
  • A solid understanding of database technology and web application architecture and design
  • CRYPTO/SMART CONTRACT/BLOCKCHAIN EXPERIENCE IS NOT REQUIRED!!!

Description

Any IT professional or hobbyist anticipating a solid understanding of how cryptocurrency and smart contract technology works and desires an understanding of crypto's use cases and potential (including  blockchains and distributed applications) needs to go through this course to leverage cryptocurrency and smart contracts in new or existing development projects.  Anyone desiring to learn how cryptocurrency solutions are designed, configured, and developed needs the knowldege and practice presented in this course.  This not only includes web, mobile, and service application developers, but also architects, UI designers, testers, and administrators. This course provides a solid understanding of how crypto and blockchain technology works and a solid foundation for platform evaluation and learning lower level details.

Who this course is for:

  • This course was built for forward-looking developers who need to familiarize themselves with the advanced blockchain technology offered by EOS.
  • With a new, major upgrade rolling out, the material presented here is based on this new MainNet version code.
  • This course is designed for those developers who want to begin creating cryptocurrencies, smart contracts, and distributed apps on the EOS blockchain platform and need a good springboard to start their descent into this deep and detailed set of technologies, theories, and implementations.
  • This course focuses on the outstanding components of EOS technologies and weaves them together to create a solid understanding of the system stack's component interactions and dependencies.
  • Of course, the info presented here is just as valuable for architects, testers, and product managers as they too should understand how the EOS blockchain platform is designed and used to create the next level of distributed applications on the blockchain.
  • This course IS NOT intended for non-technical students. The content presented is in the context of technical review and implementation.
