Learn the Basics
Start your journey with the public Hedera network by learning the basics — from understanding the network’s architecture to who’s building next-generation applications, you’ll have a proper foundation to start building.
Hedera Explained
Understand the basics of Hedera network node types, developer services & API, governance, $HBAR, and more by reading this introduction to Hedera.
How It Works
Hedera is an open-source, public, proof-of-stake network. Hedera network
services offer low & fixed fees,10k TPS, and instant transaction finality.
Core Concepts
Dive into the technical core concepts of Hedera. Learn everything from how
accounts are created to scheduling transactions and querying on-ledger data.
Hedera Ecosystem
From permissionless web3 startups and NFT projects to Fortune 500 companies, take a look into who’s choosing Hedera to build their next-generation application.
Getting Started
Follow the step-by-step guides in the Getting Started series to start developing on the Hedera network today. The series offers personalized developer learning paths to help you understand the essentials and start building web3 applications.
Create Testnet Account
Create and fund your Hedera Testnet account using the Hedera developer portal, faucet, or HashPack wallet.
Hedera Native Developers
This is the developer learning path for Hedera-native developers and
developers new to web3 and Hedera.
EVM Developers
This is the learning path for smart contract developers with experience deploying Solidity smart contracts.
Build Your First Decentralized Application (DApp)
Learn to use Hedera network services and build your first dApp with step-by-step tutorials, or dive into the interactive Hedera Developer Playground for a hands-on coding experience.
Create & Deploy a Smart Contract
Create a Solidity Smart Contract that interacts with the Hedera Token Service, bringing full programmability into your token-based application.
Create Fungible Tokens
Service to create fungible tokens that map to ERC-20 standards and scale to 10,000+ TPS.
Create Non-Fungible Tokens
Use the Hedera Token Service to create non-fungible tokens that map to ERC-721 standards and scale to 10,000+ TPS.
Write Verifiable Data to Hedera
Use the Hedera Consensus Service as a decentralized message bus to write immutable, verifiable, and consensus timestamped data at 10k+ TPS and $0.0001 per message.
Hedera Developer Playground
Use the interactive Hedera Developer Playground to follow guided examples or experiment with Hedera SDKs in a hands-on coding environment.
Hedera Contract Builder
Use the interactive Hedera Contract Builder to follow guided examples in a
hands-on coding environment.
Hedera Network Services
Learn about the suite of network services offered on Hedera and how each can be used to build decentralized applications.
Smart Contracts
An EVM-based smart contract service. Build and deploy contracts using Solidity or port over an existing smart contract with ease.
Token Service
Configure, mint, and manage native fungible and non-fungible tokens or using
ERC-20 & 721 standards on the Hedera network.
Consensus Service
Incorporate scalable, real-time, auditable logs of events with consensus
timestamps into any web2 or permissionless web3 application.
File Service
Hedera File Service is a decentralized file storage platform that allows users to securely store and access files on a distributed network of computers using hash as a file identifier.
EVM-Compatible Tools
Continue utilizing familiar Ethereum development tools such as Web3.js, Truffle, Ethers, Hardhat, and Foundry to build on Hedera using the JSON-RPC Relay. As an Ethereum developer, your workflow does not have to change.
Create an ECDSA Account
Create an ECDSA account that works with JSON-RPC to use EVM-compatible tooling, libraries, and wallets.
Set Up Metamask
Add a Hedera network to Metamask using the Hashio
implementation of the JSON-RPC Relay. Sign transactions and queries to test
your Hedera-powered application.
Libraries & Tooling
Integrate Hedera into Ethers, web3.js, Truffle, or Hardhat for building,
debugging, and deploying your smart contract applications on the Hedera
network.
JSON-RPC Relay
JSON-RPC makes it easy for existing EVM-based libraries, dev tools, and wallets to work effortlessly on Hedera.
Developer Tools and Integrations
Explore various developer tools and resources on Hedera that help make building and maintaining your decentralized application even easier.
Network Explorers
Visualizations & APIs for historical network data, including account & token details, transactions, tokens, contracts, topics, and schedules.
Wallet Integrations
Onboard users into your application with ease. Wallets on Hedera offer
transaction signing, management of HBAR, NFTs, and fungible tokens.
Network Bridge
HashPort is a public utility that facilitates the bi-directional movement of
digital assets between public networks in a quick, secure, and cost-effective
way.
Monitoring & Security
Use Open Zeppelin’s Defender Admin, Relay, and Sentinels for administrative,
security, and monitoring functionality for Smart Contracts on Hedera.
Local Node
Learn how to set up your own Hedera local network, including consensus & mirror nodes, using Docker.
