We have started a blockchain testnet with the ParaState Frontier software, and the web3 RPC endpoint is

https://rpc.parastate.io:8545/

With the web3 RPC, we can use the BUIDL online IDE, created by Second State, to create, deploy, and test Solidity smart contracts. Load BUIDL for ParaState in your browser.

The instructions below shows how to create, compile, and deploy a simple Hello World smart contract to the ParaState testnet. It also demonstrates how to call functions on the deployed smart contract.

Step 1: Using Metamask to access ParaState’s TestNet link

Step 2: Accounts ->Import ->Enter your Private Key.

Step 3: ERC20 smart contract source code in Solidity.

Step 4: Make sure that BUIDL IDE connects to the ParaState TestNet.

Step 5:

  • Compile the smart contract.
  • Deloy the smart contract to ParaState.

Step 6:

  • Call a few functions to view the state in the contract.
    For example: Call name - decimals - owner - symbol - balanceOf
  • Send a transaction to change the state in the contract.
  • Check out the ERC20 tokens we just minted in the smart contract.
