## Deployment of First Vyper Smart Contract In this lesson, we'll be deploying our first Vyper smart contract. We'll be using `remix.ethereum.org` (aka the Remix IDE) to build our code base here. You should follow along coding with us, and even try to do some coding yourself as we go on here. Remember, both on Cyfrin Updraft and on YouTube, you can change the speed of the video so that it matches your pace. ### Smart Contract Code The smart contract code we will be deploying is: ```python # I'm a comment! # SPDX-License-Identifier: MIT # @version ^0.4.0 my_favorite_number: uint256 struct Person: favorite_number: uint256 name: String[100] # Static Array/List list_of_people: public Person[5] list_of_people_index: uint256 name_to_favorite_number: HashMap[String[100], uint256] @external def store(favorite_number: uint256): self.my_favorite_number = favorite_number @external @view def retrieve() -> uint256: return self.my_favorite_number @external def add_person(name: String[100], favorite_number: uint256): new_person: Person = Person(favorite_number, name) self.list_of_people[self.list_of_people_index] = new_person self.list_of_people_index += 1 self.name_to_favorite_number[name] = favorite_number ``` ### Deploying the Smart Contract 1. **Paste the code:** Open Remix IDE and create a new file. Paste the code from the code block above into the new file. 2. **Compile:** Click the "Compile" button to compile the code. 3. **Deploy:** Click the "Deploy" button to deploy the contract to the blockchain. We're excited for you to complete your first smart contract deployment!
