Practical Intro Blockchain for Python Developers

Are you curious about blockchain development and interested in trying it out?


Outline
  • The first part of this talk will cover all the basic elements of the inner workings of blockchain. To demonstrate this, we will be building a blockchain from scratch in Python.
  • Next, we will cover how to connect with, retrieve, and store information with a test blockchain using web3.py and related libraries.
  • Finally, we will talk about some of the specifics for how to build applications on the blockchain and build a few apps to demonstrate how everything fits together.

At the end of this talk, you will leave with:

  • An understanding of all the basics of how blockchains work.
  • Knowing how to run a local, test Ethereum blockchain.
  • A basic knowledge of web3.py and how build Python applications on the blockchain.
