Blockchain technology has certainly been hyped over the past few years, but when you strip all of that away, what can actually do with it? This book provides you with an introduction to Ethereum, an open source platform that's based based on blockchain. It enables developers to build and deploy decentralized applications that can be relied on to work without fraud, censorship or interference from third parties. Far more than just a cryptocurrency or smart contracts platform, Ethereum is becoming an entire ecosystem for building decentralized applications.

This collection contains three books:

• A Developer's Guide to Ethereum, a collection of articles that provides an introduction to blockchain technology more broadly before focusing on the Ethereum platform specifically

• Ethereum: Tools & Skills, a collection of articles examining some of the most popular Ethereum tools, and walk you through how to use them when building your own Ethereum-based apps.

• Build Your First Ethereum DApp, a complete project tutorial that will walk you through the creation of a complete distributed application (DApp) based on the Ethereum platform.

This collection is for anyone interested in using the Ethereum platform for development. No prior knowledge of blockchain is assumed.
