Full Stack Ethereum: Run a local Ethereum dApp

Understand the project

Practical overview

Use it when learning or prototyping a full-stack Ethereum application and you want a documented local contract-and-frontend workflow.

Developers learning how Ethereum contracts and a frontend fit together.
Builders seeking a tutorial-based starting point for a customized Ethereum dApp.

Start a local Hardhat test node and deploy the tutorial contract to localhost.
Configure the app with deployed contract addresses and start the React application.
Study or adapt a sample dApp that uses Solidity and Ethers.js.

Before you choose

The repository is public and can be cloned and run locally.

The README documents a local Hardhat node, contract deployment, address configuration in src/App.js, and app startup.
A separate Gitpod setup is documented with an RPC endpoint and ChainID 1337 for wallet custom-RPC configuration.
The repository is presented as a companion codebase to a development tutorial.

Check current requirements in the official documentation. Source-based guidance does not mean OpenViST has run or independently tested this project.

Source-based practical guide

Follow the documented local workflow from installing dependencies to starting the application.

Clone the repository and install dependencies with npm install or yarn.
Start the local test node with npx hardhat node.
In a separate command session, deploy the contract using npx hardhat run scripts/deploy.js --network localhost.
Set greeterAddress and tokenAddress in src/App.js to the deployed contract addresses.
Start the app with npm start.

The app starts with its contract addresses configured for the local deployment.
