The demand for developers knowledgeable about non-fungible tokens (NFTs) has been skyrocketing in recent years, and it didn't stop even in the crypto bear market at the beginning of 2022.
What is an NFT?
A non-fungible token (NFT) is an identifiable unit of data - a photo, video, or audio - for which the ownership history is stored on a blockchain. One NFT is unlike another; they are uniquely identifiable. That's why NFTs differ from fungible blockchain cryptocurrencies, such as Bitcoin.
Investors pay up for NFT coders!
Many NFT marketplaces that started as passion projects now attract serious venture capital and large-scale investors. For example, NFT marketplace Rarible recently announced a $14.2 million Series A funding. The biggest NFT marketplace OpenSea is even valued at $13 billion!
Code your own working NFT marketplace!
This course will guide you through a practical project to create a working prototype of an NFT marketplace.
The marketplace implementation is super simple to be used as a learning device. But it works - users can create, buy, and sell their own NFTs using Metamask! ????
We use a simple technology stack based on Solidity, Truffle, and JavaScript for the frontend. You'll learn and improve your skills in these technologies as you complete the course.
All the code is available in a GitHub repository and you can use it for fun, learning, or even as a basis for your own 1-person NFT startup?
Let's get ready to learn!
