Truffle Quick Start Guide

By: Nikhil Bhaskar

Overview of this book

Truffle is a world-class development environment, testing framework and asset pipeline for Ethereum, aiming to make life as an Ethereum developer easier. If you are a web developer wanting to try your hand at developing Dapps with Truffle, then this is the book for you. This book will teach you to write smart contracts and build Dapps with Truffle. You will begin with covering the basics of Truffle, briefly explaining how it integrates Solidity and Web3, in orderto start building a mini decentralized application. Also, you will dive into migration, testing and integrating Truffle with the use of popular JavaScript frameworks. Lastly, you will ship your decentralized application and package it into a product. Moreover, you will go through the best practices in Truffle,so as to increase your proficiency in building Dapps with Truffle. By the end of the book, you will be able to write smart contracts and build decentralized applications with Truffle on Ethereum blockchains.

Summary

We learned how to migrate your contract using geth to Ropsten and Kovan, and the principles we learned will allow us to migrate on to the main Ethereum network when we are ready to deploy a real-world contract.

Once again, we use parity and geth because they can connect to real Ethereum networks such as Ropsten and Kovan, unlike ganache-cli.

I will see you in the next chapter, where we will learn to how integrate our Truffle project with some of the most popular JavaScript frameworks, such as Angular, React, and Vue.
