Learn how to use Hedera network services and build your first dApp by following these step-by-step tutorials.
| Create & Deploy a Smart Contract | Create a Solidity Smart Contract that interacts with the Hedera Token Service, bringing full programmability into your token-based application. | deploy-a-contract-using-the-hedera-token-service.md | create & deploy a smart contract.png |
| Create Fungible Tokens | Service to create fungible tokens that map to ERC-20 standards and scale to 10,000+ TPS. | create-and-transfer-your-first-fungible-token.md | fungible-tokens-icon.png |
| Create Non-Fungible Tokens | Use the Hedera Token Service to create non-fungible tokens that map to ERC-721 standards and scale to 10,000+ TPS. | create-and-transfer-your-first-nft.md | non-fungible-tokens-icon.png |
| Write Verifiable Data to Hedera | Use the Hedera Consensus Service as a decentralized message bus to write immutable, verifiable, and consensus timestamped data at 10k+ TPS and $0.0001 per message. | submit-your-first-message.md | write verifiable data.png |
Learn about the suite of network services offered on Hedera and how each can be used to build decentralized applications.
| Smart Contracts | An EVM-based smart contract service. Build and deploy contracts using Solidity or port over an existing smart contract with ease. | smart-contracts | smart-contracts-icon.png |
| Token Service | Configure, mint, and manage native fungible and non-fungible tokens or using ERC-20 & 721 standards on the Hedera network. | token-service | token-service-icon.png |
| Consensus Service | Incorporate scalable, real-time, auditable logs of events with consensus timestamps into any web2 or permissionless web3 application. | consensus-service | consensus-service-icon.png |
| File Service | Hedera File Service is a decentralized file storage platform that allows users to securely store and access files on a distributed network of computers using hash as a file identifier. | readme-1-1 | file-service-icon.png |
Continue utilizing familiar Ethereum development tools such as Web3.js, Truffle, Ethers, Hardhat, and Foundry to build on Hedera using the JSON-RPC Relay. As an Ethereum developer, your workflow does not have to change.
| Create an ECDSA Account | Create an ECDSA account that works with JSON-RPC to use EVM-compatible tooling, libraries, and wallets. | https://github.com/hashgraph/hedera-json-rpc-relay/blob/main/docs/examples/account-alias-ecdsa.js | create ECDSA account.png |
| Set Up Metamask | Add a Hedera network to Metamask using the Hashio implementation of the JSON-RPC Relay. Sign transactions and queries to test your Hedera-powered application. | https://github.com/hashgraph/hedera-json-rpc-relay/blob/main/docs/transfer-guide.md | setup metamask.png |
| Libraries & Tooling | Integrate Hedera into Ethers, web3.js, Truffle, or Hardhat for building, debugging, and deploying your smart contract applications on the Hedera network. | https://github.com/hashgraph/hedera-json-rpc-relay/tree/main/tools | libraries & tooling.png |
| JSON-RPC Relay | JSON-RPC makes it easy for existing EVM-based libraries, dev tools, and wallets to work effortlessly on Hedera. | json-rpc-relay.md | JSON-RPC relay.png |
Explore various developer tools and resources on Hedera that help make building and maintaining your decentralized application even easier.
