Introduction

Smart Contract Development on Cosmos EVM

Build smart contracts on Cosmos EVM. This guide helps you go from writing your first Solidity contract to deploying real applications with cross-chain features.

Smart contracts run on the blockchain and enforce rules without middlemen. They work well for DeFi, governance, and cross-chain tasks.

Basic Essentials

• Write Your First Contract: Follow the Solidity Beginner Tutorial to create a simple “Hello World” contract.
• Set Up Your Tools: Use Hardhat’s Getting Started Guide or Foundry’s Quickstart to prepare your environment.
• Test and Deploy: Learn testing and deployment with OpenZeppelin’s Learn Guides.
• Security: Study common security patterns and best practices in OpenZeppelin’s Security Patterns to protect your contracts.

Additional Resources

• Cosmos EVM Documentation for Cosmos-specific details.
• Join the community on Discord and Cosmos Forum.

Start by building small, testing often, and engaging with other developers.
