Foundational Concepts about Mantle Network
This is the introductory course for Mantle Network. In this lesson, we will dive into foundational concepts about the Mantle Network, including layer-2 (L2), optimistic roll-up (OR), and modular blockchain, providing students with a comprehensive understanding of the ecosystem before learning the Solidity syntax and building projects on Mantle.
Syllabus
Unit 1 - Alice and Bob
This section introduces learners to Alice and Bob who will serve as the protagonists of the “Foundational Concepts about Mantle Network” course.
Unit 2 - Layer 2
Layer 2 (L2) is a network or channel sitting on top of a Layer 1 (L1) network like Bitcoin or Ethereum designed to enhance the speed and reduce the cost of performing transactions. This unit discusses the various types of L2s such as State Channels, Side-chains, OP Roll-ups, and ZK Roll-ups and discusses their respective advantages and disadvantages.
Unit 3 - Introduction to Mantle Network
This section discusses the background, process flows, and architecture of Mantle Network.
Unit 4 - How to deploy your first contract on Mantle
In this unit, we will guide you from the process of setting up wallet to successfully deploying your first smart contract.
