HALLOWEEN SALE

Lay out pages in HTML and CSS: selectors, the box model, flexbox, positioning, responsive layouts and images, semantic markup, forms, web fonts, and transitions. Bonus: the SASS preprocessor.

HTML and CSS

Work with strings, numbers, conditions, arrays, objects, classes, and prototypes, then update the DOM and handle events and forms. Build a sleep tracker, use npm and bundling, and try Web Components and Lit.

JavaScript

Work with callbacks, promises, async/await, JSON and fetch, error handling, and the event loop; write a fetch wrapper and connect an interface to an API.

Async and APIs

Describe data with types: generics, unions and narrowing, utility types, keyof and typeof, mapped and conditional types, and overloads, so errors surface before runtime.

TypeScript

Build an online-store interface from components: JSX, props, state, events, forms, useEffect, local storage, API requests, custom hooks, refs, and context. The course includes 13 projects and a final assignment.

React

Learn hashes, symmetric and asymmetric encryption, digital signatures, ECC and ECDSA, Ethereum addresses, RANDAO and VRF randomness, and BLS signatures.

Cryptography Fundamentals

Write Solidity contracts: variables and data types, addresses, functions and modifiers, errors and events, contract interaction, inheritance, and imports. Projects: an ENS domain, a wallet, and a record factory.

Solidity Foundations

Set up Remix IDE and VS Code, connect MetaMask and Hardhat, run a local blockchain, and deploy a contract to a testnet.

Contract Tooling

Connect JavaScript to Ethereum with Ethers.js: providers, testnets and MetaMask, transactions, contract calls, approve and allowance. In the final project, rewrite the code with wagmi and ConnectKit.

Ethers Integration

Write the CryptoBook smart contract, deploy it, build the frontend, and ship the project.

CryptoBook

Move from web fundamentals and cryptography to Solidity, Ethers.js, and a finished CryptoBook.

Curriculum

The engineering path starts with HTML, CSS, JavaScript, TypeScript, and React, then covers cryptography fundamentals, Solidity, and Ethers.js. These layers meet in CryptoBook: you write a smart contract, deploy it, connect a web interface to it, and ship the project.

Learn HTML, JavaScript, and TypeScript as the foundation of client-side web3 development

Build a React interface and connect application state to blockchain data

Understand hashes, encryption, digital signatures, ECDSA, and how a key becomes an Ethereum address

Write Solidity contracts in Remix, run them on a local Hardhat chain, and deploy them to a testnet

Connect the contract through Ethers, handle transactions, and ship CryptoBook
