Homework README for "Blockchain Technologies and Applications" - 2019 at BME

The basics (please read it carefully)

Notes on the Hyperledger Composer assignments

Technology and documentation-wise, everything you need to know can be found here. And to state again: you don't have to install it, you don't have to deploy it to a Fabric instance; all we require as submitted solution is the .bna file (+ documentation). You are allowed to simply test your solution in-browser, no hard feelings.

Some Hyperledger Composer assignments deal with explicit "money" transfers and "bank account" like constructs. As there is no native cryptocurrency in Hyperledger Fabric/Composer, a full solution would require you to model and implement a) an authority that "creates"/"destroys" money on the ledger and provides accounts for other Participants, b) mechanisms to ensure that no money is created out of thin air (apart from which the aforementioned authority creates), c) mechanisms for "transferring" money. You are very welcome to create such a solution - i.e. one that is equipped with a Bank or Central Bank -, but not required to do so.

Notes on the Ethereum Solidity assignments

You are not required to deploy your solution to the Ethereum mainnet; but we strongly encourage testing on a local (isolated) Ethereum node as well as on a testnet. As during the lectures, we suggest that you use the remix IDE - and your first task should be getting familiar enough with that. We also have a very nice guide (in Hungarian) here.
