Ethereum : Decentralized Application Design & Development

PS:

What students should know (Pre–requisites) ?

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:

Experience with either Javascript or Java. Course will NOT teach Javascript

Basic understanding of the Javascript/HTML DOM model

Access to a PC or MAC with access to the Internet (Minimum 4GB needed 6 GB preferred)

Comfortable with new software installation & hands on coding

Course Approach?

This course takes the approach of Learn by doing . Students are encouraged to try out all aspects of the technologies on their own after each lecture. Almost all of the concepts discussed in the lectures are shown in action by way code samples etc. The demo code used in the lectures is available for download from GitHub so that students can change the code to try out new things.

Front end of the Decentralized applications are typically created as single page or desktop applications using Javascript/HTML/CSS. Since there are multiple Javascript frameworks, it was decided to keep the lectures independent of any specific JS framework. Students are free to use any one or more JS frameworks of their choice.

Multiple quizzes in each section will validate student s knowledge. Coding exercises will help them understand the concepts better & gain confidence.
