Course description

Foundry Fundamentals is a comprehensive web3 development course designed to teach the skills you need to start developing your own smart contracts and protocols. Learn industry-standard web3 development tools and frameworks like Foundry for Solidity, Chainlink, and Alchemy.

You will learn:

  • Foundry, the industry-standard framework for Ethereum application development. Build, deploy, and test your smart contracts.
  • Chainlink Blockchain Oracles and how to connect off-chain data to your smart contracts.
  • How to set up your Node provider and RPC using Alchemy
  • Introduction to smart contracts testing using Foundry
  • Writing and running smart contract tests
  • How to verify smart contract using Foundry and Etherscan

Foundry Fundamentals is the next step in your web3 development journey.

Cyfrin Updraft has taught over 100,000 students smart contract development and 60,000 students Foundry for Solidity. It offers the most complete, hands-on course of study for smart contract development, tools, and frameworks available.

Learn Foundry for Solidity through 10 hours of video and written content, more than 100 lessons, and three projects.

If you have some experience with Solidity programming, Foundry Fundamentals will take you from beginner to intermediate web3 developer. Here's why:

  • The world’s leading solidity smart contract developers and web3 educators teach the course.
  • Courses are always up to date and reflect the latest industry standards. Learn the latest tools and technologies, used at large companies and protocols, with always fresh content, lessons, projects, and modules.
  • The curriculum was developed and refined over 2 years through comprehensive student testing, feedback, and reviews.
  • We've taught over 100,000 students how to write secure Solidity smart contracts, DeFi, decentralized applications (dApps), and distributed ledger technology.
  • Thousands of students have changed their lives. They’ve become blockchain engineers, smart contract and dApp auditors, or professional blockchain developers. Many choose to join industry-leading companies.
  • A community of thousands of web3 developers to support you during your learning journey

Foundry for Solidity is a project-based fundamentals course. It includes quizzes, tests, exercises, assignments, and 3 projects to start creating your Solidity smart contracts portfolio!

Engaging video tutorials will take you step-by-step teaching you everything you need to know to succeed as a web3 developer.
