👩💻Kalp Studio: How do I deploy a Smart Contract?
Hey Users! Welcome to the Kalp Studio Platform.
Tired of complex coding and deployment hassles? Building a Smart Contract shouldn't feel like climbing Mount Everest. This guide is here to empower you with a clear and smooth path to creating your Smart Contract. We'll break down the process into easy-to-follow steps, ensuring you have the confidence and knowledge to bring your ideas to life on the blockchain.
Smart contracts are digital agreements coded on a blockchain that automatically execute or enforce the terms of a contract when predefined conditions are met. They enable secure, transparent, and decentralized transactions without the need for intermediaries.
So, let’s begin with the Smart Contract creation on Kalp Studio.
Step 1: Project Initialization
Direct your attention to the 'Projects' segment within the Kalp Studio interface. This serves as the commencement point for smart contract creation and deployment.
Step 2: Create a New Project
In the absence of an existing project, initiate a new project by selecting the corresponding option. Enter the requisite details including project name, description, and any additional specifications to accurately define the project's scope.
Step 3: Project Creation Successful
Upon successful project setup, it will be cataloged within your Kalp Studio portfolio, signaling readiness for smart contract development.
Smart Contract Creation
Step 1: Initiating Smart Contract Creation: For first-time users, the screen with no Smart Contract list will be displayed.
To create a Smart Contract you have to agree to Kalp Studio's Terms and Conditions.
After you agree to the terms and conditions, you can start creating the Smart Contract. Click on Create Smart Contract.
Access the "Smart Contract" section via the left panel bar on Kalp Studio.
Select the "Create Smart Contract" button. Alternatively, this can also be achieved through the "Create Smart Contract" option on the Dashboard.
Step 2: Detailing the Smart Contract:
Name: Assign a distinctive name to the Smart Contract.
Project: Identify the overarching project or system the Smart Contract integrates with.
Description: Offer a concise description outlining the contract's functionality.
Step 3: Environment Selection:
Opt for the appropriate environment for deployment: "Development", "Staging", or "Production".
Step 4: Network Selection:
Determine the deployment network - "TestNet".
Step 5: Template Utilization and Submission:
Kalp Studio provides ERC token templates. Select the relevant template for your needs.
Download, complete, and upload the filled template to Kalp Studio for review and subsequent actions.
Step 6: Final Review and Publication:
Save Draft
If you want to pause the Smart Contract creation and would like to visit it later then Save Draft is a great option!
In this option, all fields are editable and can be modified at a later point.
Save & Publish
After you Save & Publish the Smart Contract gets deployed on the Kalp blockchain. You can still edit the Smart Contract Name and Description. All other fields are non-editable.
The published Smart Contract gets added to the list of Smart Contracts. If the user wants to make some changes in Smart Contract, Save Draft option can be used. The saved draft can be edited anytime by the user.
List of Smart Contracts
Adhering to these steps will ensure the professional and efficient creation of a Smart Contract on Kalp Studio, streamlining your project's development process. You can view the list of newly created Smart Contract after Save and Publish.
