Getting Started with Ethereum Solidity Development
summary
Hands-on guide that builds a D-Vox conference DApp: Solidity 0.4.x contracts with structs, mappings and events, a payable register that stores attendees and holds 1.8 ether in contract balance, and a speaker reward withdrawal. Development uses Truffle, Ganache/TestRPC and web3, tests run with Truffle/Mocha/Chai (three passing tests shown), migrations deploy to localhost, and a simple jQuery UI connects via MetaMask. All examples compile, run locally, and demonstrate gas, reverts and event-driven UI updates.
