Blockchain for beginners:build certificate registration DApp Course

What we cover

• We briefly cover the philosophy of the blockchain and Ethereum.
• Then we will explain how blockchains work, what is Decentralized App and how smart contract communicates with DApp
• We set up an easy development environment, including tools that can be used with minimum steps
• And the biggest part of the course is dedicated to guiding you through a simple Decentralized App

Some of the keyword definition:

Decentralized applications (dApps) are applications that run on the blockchain rather than a database.

We covered the following concept:
