Building a DApp with Ethers.js
Blog post from LogRocket
The tutorial provides a comprehensive guide to understanding blockchain concepts and building a decentralized application (DApp) on the Ethereum blockchain using Ethers.js. It begins with an introduction to blockchain technology, Ethereum, and key terms such as smart contracts and DApps. The tutorial then details the process of using Ethers.js, a JavaScript library, to interact with the Ethereum blockchain, including installation and setup, connecting to MetaMask for wallet management, and querying blockchain data. The practical component involves creating a DApp that displays USDT balances, enables transfers, and queries transaction history, with step-by-step instructions on setting up the environment, minting USDC, displaying balances, and adding transfer functionality. Throughout the tutorial, real-world examples and code snippets demonstrate how to implement these features, emphasizing the significance of decentralized applications in modern software development.
