Welcome to Hedera — let’s build the future

Understand the basics of Hedera network node types, developer services & API, governance, $HBAR, and more by reading this introduction to Hedera.

Hedera is an open-source, public, proof-of-stake network. Hedera network services offer low & fixed fees,10k TPS, and instant transaction finality.

Dive into the technical core concepts of Hedera. Learn everything from how accounts are created to scheduling transactions and querying on-ledger data.

From permissionless web3 startups and NFT projects to Fortune 500 companies, take a look into who’s choosing Hedera to build their next-generation application.

Create and fund your Hedera Testnet account using the Hedera developer portal, faucet, or HashPack wallet.

Set up your development environment after creating your testnet account to interact with the Hedera network.

Choose your developer learning path: Web2 Developers or EVM Developers, depending on your experience level.

Create a Solidity Smart Contract that interacts with the Hedera Token Service, bringing full programmability into your token-based application.

Use the Hedera Consensus Service as a decentralized message bus to write immutable, verifiable, and consensus timestamped data at 10k+ TPS and $0.0001 per message.

Use the interactive Hedera Developer Playground to follow guided examples or experiment with Hedera SDKs in a hands-on coding environment.

An EVM-based smart contract service. Build and deploy contracts using Solidity or port over an existing smart contract with ease.

Configure, mint, and manage native fungible and non-fungible tokens or using ERC-20 & 721 standards on the Hedera network.

Incorporate scalable, real-time, auditable logs of events with consensus timestamps into any web2 or permissionless web3 application.

Hedera File Service is a decentralized file storage platform that allows users to securely store and access files on a distributed network of computers using hash as a file identifier.

Create an ECDSA account that works with JSON-RPC to use EVM-compatible tooling, libraries, and wallets.

Integrate Hedera into Ethers, web3.js, Truffle, or Hardhat for building, debugging, and deploying your smart contract applications on the Hedera network.

JSON-RPC makes it easy for existing EVM-based libraries, dev tools, and wallets to work effortlessly on Hedera.

Visualizations & APIs for historical network data, including account & token details, transactions, tokens, contracts, topics, and schedules.

Onboard users into your application with ease. Wallets on Hedera offer transaction signing, management of HBAR, NFTs, and fungible tokens.

HashPort is a public utility that facilitates the bi-directional movement of digital assets between public networks in a quick, secure, and cost-effective way.

Use Open Zeppelin’s Defender Admin, Relay, and Sentinels for administrative, security, and monitoring functionality for Smart Contracts on Hedera.

Learn how to set up your own Hedera local network, including consensus & mirror nodes, using Docker.
