You will need:
- Metamask
- Basic understanding about blockchains
- Knowledge about Ethereum wouldnt hurt
After pulling down the code, try running the following:
npx hardhat node
Grab the private key from "account 0" and import the account into your Metamask.
Next, run the following:
npx hardhat run scripts/deploy.js --network localhost
yarn start
Then go into the UI of the React app and open a debug console. After clicking the button "Fetch Greeting" you should see a message in the console. Try updating the message by adding new text to the input field and clicking the button "Set Greeting"
We aren't using any real coins in this project. Hardhat creates dummy eth for us to play with. Inspired by this video by Nader Dabit https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a0osIaAOFSE&t=1433s
