Syllabus

Unit 1 - Alice and Bob

This unit introduces learners to Alice and Bob who will serve as the protagonists of the “Foundational Concepts about Mantle Network” course.

Unit 2 - Layer 2

Layer 2 (L2) is a network or channel sitting on top of a Layer 1 (L1) network like Bitcoin or Ethereum designed to enhance the speed and reduce the cost of performing transactions. This unit discusses the various types of L2s such as State Channels, Side-chains, OP Roll-ups, and ZK Roll-ups and discusses their respective advantages and dis-advantages.

Unit 3 - Introduction to Mantle Network

This unit discusses the background, process flows, and architecture of Mantle Network.

Unit 4 - How to deploy your first contract on Mantle

In this unit, we will guide you from the process of setting up wallet to successfully deploying your first smart contract.
