Getting started with RSK – step by step

Hello everyone! It’s a really easy-to-follow tutorial to start with RSK Smart Contracts. It’s divided into small modules which duration are lower than an hour, so you can organize your time and learn!

Preparing the environment

First of all, We propose you to mount your own development environment. So, you should get/install:

Tool	Details
TESTRPC	is an in-memory blockchain that provides a fast alternative to test your contracts, since you don't have to wait for mining or get Gas to publish your contracts in real network
EDITOR/COMPILER	select and download one from the link
TRUFFLE	is a framework that helps you write, test and deploy smart contracts. It is compatible with RSK Smart
REMIX	an online Solidity compiler, open the link in browser

Ok, let's start!
