Course Description

Overview

  • Module 1: Introduction to blockchain on Azure. See how blockchain allows business partners to trust each other's data without a central authority. You'll also learn a bit about how blockchain works. The goal is to help you decide if blockchain is a good choice for your scenario.

    • In this module, you will learn to:

    • Explain how blockchain enables trust and business processes between participants
    • Evaluate when to use blockchain for a solution
    • Classify available blockchain options on Azure
  • Module 2: Discover how Solidity can help you program smart contracts for the Ethereum blockchain platform.

    • In this module, you will learn how to:

    • Explain what Solidity is and how the features of the language work.
    • Understand the components of a smart contract.
    • Create a basic smart contract with Solidity.
  • Module 3: Learn how to install and use tools that you can use to develop smart contracts.

    • By the end of this module, you'll be able to:

    • Explain what smart contracts are.
    • Know common use cases for smart contracts.
    • Install the Blockchain development kit.
    • Install Truffle.
    • Write a smart contract by using the Blockchain development kit.
    • Test a smart contract by using Truffle.
  • Module 4: Learn about the significance of tokens and how they are used in blockchain.

    • By the end of this module, you will be able to:

    • Explain what tokens are
    • Identify the different types of tokens
    • Use the contracts library in OpenZeppelin
    • Create a token smart contract
  • Module 5: Learn about decentralized apps and how to build your own.

    • By the end of this module, you'll be able to:

    • Explain what decentralized apps are
    • Identify the technology needed to create decentralized apps
    • Explain how to use Drizzle to create apps
    • Build your own decentralized apps
  • Module 6: Learn about and use Ethereum networks for development, testing, and production.

    • By the end of this module, you'll be able to:

    • Identify the public and private networks available in Ethereum.
    • Explain how to prepare a solution for the mainnet.
    • Use MetaMask with Infura to connect a solution to networks.
