Become a Blockchain developer and design, build, publish, test, maintain and secure scalable decentralized Blockchain projects using Bitcoin, Ethereum, NEO, EOS and Hyperledger.
This book helps you understand Blockchain beyond development and crypto to better harness its power and capability. You will learn tips to start your own project, and best practices for testing, security, and even compliance. Immerse yourself in this technology and review key topics such as cryptoeconomics, coding your own Blockchain P2P network, different consensus mechanisms, decentralized ledger, mining, wallets, blocks, and transactions.
Additionally, this book provides you with hands-on practical tools and examples for creating smart contracts and dApps for different blockchains such as Ethereum, NEO, EOS, and Hyperledger. Aided by practical, real-world coding examples, you'll see how to build dApps with Angular utilizing typescript from start to finish, connect to the blockchain network locally on a test network, and publish on the production mainnet environment.
Don't be left out of the next technology revolution - become a Blockchain developer using TheBlockchain Developer today.

Who This Book Is For
Developers, architects and engineers who are interested in learning about Blockchain or implementing Blockchain into a new greenfield project or integrating Blockchain into a brownfield project. Technical entrepreneurs, technical investors or even executives who want to better understand Blockchain technology and its potential.
If you are upskilling yourself for Web3, this is one of the books to start with. The contents might have to be revised in a few years. But for now, this is the best book for blockchain developers that I have come across.
A good introduction to blockchain development. What I don't like in this book is that sometimes it looks like a handbook with many links to different resources instead of giving some practical information. Each blockchain is described in a way "Let's make hello world" which gives only surface understanding. Only Eth described better and has some better examples. Besides all these facts the book is really valuable as an introduction to blockchain development.
After doing a lot more reading on blockchain, I'm revising down my review rating. Elrom simply doesn't explain things that well. The coding examples are OK, but anyone trying to really understand how to use blockchains is going to have difficulty using this book to do it. It's also now quite out of date in many respects.
