A web3 starter project using Typescript, Hardhat, ethers.js and @web3-react
The Starter React Typescript Ethers.js Hardhat Project is an excellent resource for developers looking to create decentralized applications (Dapps) using the Ethereum blockchain. It integrates React with Hardhat to provide a streamlined environment for building and deploying smart contracts. This project focuses on the example Greeter.sol smart contract, allowing developers to interact with it on a local blockchain setup, facilitating a hands-on approach to understanding web3 development.
This starter kit not only sets up a local Ethereum blockchain but also offers useful functionalities that can kickstart your Dapp development journey. Whether you’re a beginner eager to learn or an experienced developer seeking a quick prototype, this project serves as a valuable tool in your web3 toolkit.
Easy Setup: Lightweight setup using the Hardhat npm package to quickly bootstrap a project via yarn hardhat init.
Seamless Interaction: Connects with MetaMask using the @web3-react package, allowing easy account management and transactions.
Blockchain Communication: Demonstrates how to read account data from the blockchain, crucial for any Dapp functionality.
Smart Contract Deployment: Includes processes for deploying new instances of smart contracts, an essential feature for live applications.
Data Handling: Allows reading and writing data to and from the deployed smart contract, enabling dynamic interactions within the Dapp.
Comprehensive Documentation: Comes with detailed instructions and a companion article by ChainShot, making the learning curve less steep for newcomers.
Local Blockchain Testing: Runs a local Hardhat node on port 8545 for efficient testing and development without the need for network fees.
React Frontend Integration: Built with Create React App, facilitating a modern front-end framework with familiar tools and libraries.
