Counter "Hello World" tutorial should cover local development node

Open miohtama opened this issue 4 years ago • 2 comments

The first tutorial should cover how to use a local testnet, deploy the contract locally and explore the testnet. This is because testing on a public testnet is difficult, as you need to access undocumented faucet to get testnet EGLD.

https://docs.elrond.com/developers/tutorials/counter/

Currently there exists erdpy tutorial for a local testnet, but it is not not connected to other tutorials. E.g. what keys are created and how to use them to deploy local testnet contracts.

This is also important, because the public testnet is unstable, slower and trying to rely it for development is causing a drop of developer efficiency.

While I agree in general I just wanted to mention that you should use the public devnet for dev purposes instead of the testnet. Since the devnet is more stable :)
