  1. Base BigBang Language

1. Getting started

Starting with BigBang is much easier than with some other smart contract languages. Despite the experimental tooling, you can already achieve great results.

Learning through examples is the most effective way to master a new skill. The later chapters will present a challenge to build a few common smart contracts on your own. Emphasis will be placed on adhering to best practices and conducting thorough testing.

If you are reading this book online, you are in for a special treat. All BigBang code snippets included here are interactive. Click the play button to execute the BigBang code and view the results or errors in your browser. However, the enjoyment doesn't end there. You can manipulate these code snippets by directly editing them.
