Key benefits

  • Delve into Solidity and understand control structures, function calls, and variable scopes
  • Explore tools for developing, testing, and debugging your blockchain applications
  • Learn advanced design patterns and best practices for writing secure smart contracts

Description

Solidity is among the most popular and contract-oriented programming languages used for writing decentralized applications (DApps) on Ethereum blockchain. If you’re looking to perfect your skills in writing professional-grade smart contracts using Solidity, this book can help. You will get started with a detailed introduction to blockchain, smart contracts, and Ethereum, while also gaining useful insights into the Solidity programming language. A dedicated section will then take you through the different Ethereum Request for Comments (ERC) standards, including ERC-20, ERC-223, and ERC-721, and demonstrate how you can choose among these standards while writing smart contracts. As you approach later chapters, you will cover the different smart contracts available for use in libraries such as OpenZeppelin. You’ll also learn to use different open source tools to test, review and improve the quality of your code and make it production-ready. Toward the end of this book, you’ll get to grips with techniques such as adding security to smart contracts, and gain insights into various security considerations. By the end of this book, you will have the skills you need to write secure, production-ready smart contracts in Solidity from scratch for decentralized applications on Ethereum blockchain.

Who is this book for?

This book is for developers and data scientists who want to learn Ethereum, blockchain, and Solidity to write smart contracts and develop production-ready code. Basic knowledge of Solidity is assumed.

What you will learn

  • Test and debug smart contracts with Truffle, Ganache, Remix, and MetaMask
  • Gain insights into maintaining code quality with different tools
  • Get up to speed with ERC standards such as ERC-20 and ERC-721
  • Become adept at using design patterns while writing smart contracts
  • Use MultiSignature (MultiSig) wallets and improve the security of contracts
  • Use Oracle services to fetch information from outside the blockchain

The book is well structured and written in simple language. The book provides a complete perspective of Solidity language and tools. It consists of- different properties of the blockchain- Ethereum terminologies and concepts with real life examples- how smart contracts are different from other programming language, how should a programmer's mindset needs to be changed for writing smart contracts- usage of Solidity development tools and commands- different Solidity design patterns, different types of security attacksI like the chapters related to ERC standards, Open Zeppelin, ZOS as many tips are provided, There is a chapter which teaches you how to create your own ERC-20 token or cryptocurrency from scratch.Print quality of the book is good. There are some commands in screenshots where text is smaller, but you can read with little bit of focus.

Alright book. Several lazy/sloppy mistakes, including nonsensical sentences that were just not reviewed prior to publishing. The content is decent, but presented in a very interesting or compelling way. I'd suggest just following online tutorials over buying...

sample codes in this book using -> pragma solidity 0.5.3That's pretty old, and library talked in this book like openzeppelin which current name openzeppelin-contracts is too old.So basically you need to learn by yourself with the newest documents github, after that you are able to know what changed.It's a good book to get the knowledge for ethereum in a certain degree, but not to do code work practically.
