Description

PS

  1. Please do NOT join the course if you are not comfortable with coding
  2. This course starts from the Basics so if you are an expert you may already know the first few sections. Do take a preview before joining.
  3. This course will NOT teach you Javascript or any Javascript framework.
  4. Please read the Pre-Requisites before signing up
  5. The focus of the course is Ethereum hence it was decided to use HTML DOM JS API instead of Angular/JQuery & other JS libraries.

What students should know (Pre-requisites)?Ethereum : Decentralized Application Design & Development – To build Ethereum Decentralized applications you will need to learn a couple of skills. This course can help you learn all of those skills but there are some prerequisites for the course:

  1. Experience with either Javascript or Java. The course will NOT teach Javascript
  2. Basic understanding of the Javascript/HTML DOM model
  3. Access to a PC or MAC with access to the Internet (Minimum 4GB needed 6 GB preferred)
  4. Comfortable with new software installation & hands-on coding

Background

Demand for Blockchain technologists is going up as multiple enterprises (& startups) are looking to achieve efficiencies or/and create new business models enabled by Blockchain technologies. Please refer to “Introduction to Ethereum” below for a high-level overview of Ethereum.

Why learn Blockchain/Ethereum?

If we are to believe the pundits, Blockchain will change the way software is built for business transactions. Almost all industries are looking to leverage this new technology to gain efficiencies and/or to create new business models & opportunities. Organizations are looking for talent in this new technology and facing difficulty in finding developers/architects who can design and develop Blockchain applications.

Taking this course will prepare you to innovate using this cutting edge technology that promises to change the world around us. It will prepare you for the future.

Introduction to Ethereum

The digital cryptocurrency Bitcoin was the first Blockchain application. The success of Bitcoin led to the creation of the Ethereum platform. Whereas Bitcoin is a “Blockchain Application”, Ethereum is a “Blockchain Platform”. Ethereum not only supports a distributed ledger but it also supports Smart Contracts.

Smart Contracts are computer programs that have the code that implements contractual agreements (rules) between two or more parties. All of this happens without any intermediary, web servers or back end databases.

Let me give you an example – eBay is the intermediary between the buyer and seller. eBay makes $ every time a buyer buys an item from the seller. In a decentralized bidding application, a smart contract can replace EBay the intermediary. The rule coded in the contract will be that when the buyer will pay, the seller will ship the item to the buyer. Nodes are Ethereum client processes running on the network participant’s computer.Anyone can write Ethereum decentralized application, so in other words, you can create your own Bitcoin-like Cryptocurrency or eBay like application on a public Ethereum network. Please note that all applications are not a good candidate for Blockchain technology, for example, building a static website on Blockchain technology is not the right use of the technology.

Who this course is for:

  • Technologists interested in learning Ethereum Blockchain
  • Architects wanting to expand their skills to Blockchain technology
  • Developers willing to learn Blockchain by doing that is coding
  • Experimenters curious to learn how Blockchain technology can change the way we do business
  • Entrepreneurs with technology background interested in realizing their business idea on the Blockchain
  • Anyone interested in ERC20 Tokens & ICOs
