Thank you

• Recommended Testnet: Sepolia
• Recommended DevOps: foundry-devops

If you receive a flag pop-up requiring you to have 0.001 ETH on mainnet, you may be able to wait 10 to 20 minutes and try again to avoid adding the 0.001 ETH on the mainnet.

After every section, in this GitHub repo will be a link to a contract on Sepolia or ZKsync. They contain a challenge for you to solve, and in return, you'll be given an AWESOME NFT.

IF YOU DECIDE TO MINT THE REAL NFT:

1. We didn't audit the NFT, so if you want to make sure you'll be safe, interact with the contract using a burner wallet (a wallet with very little money that you don't use for anything else)
   1. In fact... Get good at interacting with wallets from a burner wallet
2. Read my Tweet thread on basic wallet safety
3. It might be a good idea to wait till later in the course when we teach you about verifying metamask transactions.
4. Feel free to mint NFTs on sepolia without worrying about the above

1. The process for bridging looks like the following:
   1. Buy ETH (On an exchange like Coinbase or Kraken)
2. Send ETH -> one of your wallets like:
   1. Metamask
   2. Frame
   3. Rainbow
   4. Argent
   5. Coinbase Wallet
3. Use the ZKsync Bridge

• Follow the repository: While going through the course be 100% certain to follow along with the github repository. If you run into an issue check the chronological-updates in the repo.
• Be Active in the community: Ask questions and engage with other developers going through the course in the discussions tab, be sure to go and say hello or gm! This space is different from the other industries, you don't have to be secretive; communicate, network and learn with others :)
• Learn at your own pace: It doesn't matter if it takes you a day, a week, a month or even a year. Progress >>> Perfection
• Take Breaks: You will exhaust your mind and recall less if you go all out and watch the entire course in one sitting. Suggested Strategy every 25 minutes take a 5 min break, and every 2 hours take a longer 30 min break
• Refer to Documentation: Things are constantly being updated, so whenever Patrick opens up some documentation, open it on your end and maybe even have the code sample next to you.
• Use ChatGPT and/or the course chat

• Visual Studio Code
  • Crash Course
• VSCode Keybindings
• Git
• What is a terminal?

⌨️ (Windows Setup (WSL)

• Special Guest Vasiliy
• WSL
  • When working in WSL, use Linux commands instead of Windows commands
• TroubleShooting
• curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.39.1/install.sh | bash

⚠️ Please use Gitpod as an absolute last resort

⌨️ Gitpod

• Gitpod
  • If using this, NEVER share a private key with real money on Gitpod
  • Ideally you figure out the MacOS, Linux, or Windows install though

• CMD + K or CTRL + K clears the terminal
• code . to open VSCode in a new VSCode window

⌨️ Foundry Install

• https://getfoundry.sh

⌨️ VSCode Setup II

• CoPilot
• Copilot labs
• Hardhat Solidity Extension
• VSCodium
• mkdir foundry-cu
• cd foundry-cu
• mkdir foundry-simple-storage-cu

⌨️ Foundry Setup ⌨️ Foundry Setup II (WSL)

• FreeCodeCamp Bash

⌨️ Formatting Solidity in VSCode

• Format your solidity code within your settings.json

    "[solidity]": {
        "editor.defaultFormatter": "NomicFoundation.hardhat-solidity"
    },
    "[javascript]":{
      "editor.defaultFormatter": "esbenp.prettier-vscode"
    }

⌨️ Compiling in Foundry

• foundry-zksync

⌨️ Deploying to a local chain I (Anvil or Ganache)

• Ganache

⌨️ Adding another network to Metamask

• ETH JSON RPC

⌨️ Deploying to a local chain II (Forge Create)

• 2 Ways to deploy:
  • 1. forge create
  • 2. forge script

⌨️ Private Key Rant I

• history -c

⌨️ Deploying to a local chain III (Forge Script)

⌨️ What is a transaction (But actually)

cast --to-base 0x01 dec

⌨️ Private Key Rant II

• cast send
• source .env

Can you Encrypt a Private Key -> a keystore in foundry yet??

• A: No Yes, try the new feature by

cast wallet import your-account-name --interactive
Enter private key:
Enter password:
`your-account-name` keystore was saved successfully. Address: address-corresponding-to-private-key

forge script <script> --rpc-url <rpc_url> --account <account_name> --sender <address> --broadcast

• The .env pledge

⌨️ Never use a Env File

Private Key Rant Summary

Summary:
When you look to deploy
with real money, you should use either:
1. A password encrypted keystore
2. Something like thirdweb deploy

The idea is you never want to have
your private key or password
ANYWHERE written in plain text
(Aka, you always want it encrypted)

• Someone fix this please

Transparency is important! So we want to disclose any potential conflicts that might have affected my judgement so you can pick tools that are right for you. Patrick is co-founder of Alpha Chain, a blockchain infrastructure company. Alpha Chain runs Chainlink, Ethereum, Binance, Polygon, Harmony, Solana, Moonbeam, and Moonriver blockchain services. Alpha Chain often works with Alchemy and receives discounted services. Patrick is the co-founder of Cyfrin, and they do smart contract security & auditing services. Patrick is also the co-founder of Chain Accel, who is an advisor on the Peeranha project.

Because of all this, I have added alternatives to each section where we suggest a tool.

Thanks to everyone who is taking, participating in, and working on this course. It's been a passion project and a data dump of everything I've learnt in the web3 space to get you up to speed quickly. Also, a big thank you to Cyfrin & Chain Accel for encouraging this course to come to light, and many, many, many people from the community.

And thanks to the Cyfrin team for making this possible!
