Prerequisites
This program is designed to accommodate both beginners and professionals, and the content will be delivered in a way that ensures every participant, regardless of their previous knowledge, can follow along.
The Ethereum Blockchain Developer Program requires a solid foundation in programming and the following technical prerequisites:
Programming Skills: A good understanding of at least one high-level programming language such as JavaScript, Python, or C++ is essential. Knowledge of JavaScript is particularly beneficial due to its similarity to Solidity, the primary language for Ethereum smart contract development.
Basic Blockchain Knowledge: While not a strict prerequisite, basic familiarity with blockchain concepts and principles can help learners grasp the course content more effectively.
Web Development Basics: Understanding of web development basics, including HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, is important, as these are often used to build the front end of decentralized applications (DApps).
Knowledge of Node.js and npm: A basic understanding of Node.js and npm (node package manager) is useful for managing dependencies and packages in Ethereum development.
Git and GitHub: Knowledge of version control systems, particularly Git, and an understanding of how to use GitHub to manage and share your code is also a valuable skill for developers.
