Part 1.

Part 1 is a high-level introduction to Ethereum Dapps and related technologies. Chapter 1 introduces decentralized applications. Chapter 2 presents the blockchain and smart contracts. In chapter 3, you’ll meet the Ethereum platform, including the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM), the Go Ethereum (geth) client, and the Ethereum wallet. In this part, you’ll establish the foundation you need to progress through the book. You’ll also implement your first Dapp—a simple cryptocurrency—and, in chapter 4, deploy it on a public test network.
