Cracking Blockchain Basics with Hyperledger

The emergence of cryptocurrencies and the surge of their popularity over the last several years has put blockchain on the map as a revolutionary technology that holds vast potential to change society and industries as we know them today. In this presentation, we will help you understand blockchain basics and give an impartial perspective on how this technology can be leveraged for enterprise software development. Join us to learn about the underpinnings of distributed ledgers and smart contracts. In addition, we will explore the differences between permissioned and permissionless blockchains, touch on the distinction between the various Hyperledger projects, and gain hands on experience building a blockchain application with Hyperledger OSS.

Please come prepared to write code. You will need Node.js, NPM, and Docker installed before the presentation. It is also recommended that you install Hyperledger Composer (https://hyperledger.github.io/composer/installing/development-tools)
