Post by: Fact on November 19, 2017, 11:57:59 AM
Is it a new programming language? and what is it based on ? how is it different ?

Solidity is a contract-oriented, high-level language for implementing smart contracts. The syntax is similar to that of JavaScript and it is designed to target the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM).

Solidity is statically typed, supports inheritance, libraries and complex user-defined types among other features.

It is possible to create contracts for voting, crowdfunding, blind auctions, multi-signature wallets and more.

Basically, it is the language used to develop a smart contract. Which can be thought of as a piece of code on the blockchain.

Anyone has an idea where we can write and play with it, like a sandbox type of testnet thingy?

Wow, as an aspiring programmer, I wanna learn this one to enhance my skills in programming. It can also help my skills in crytpo. Thanks for those who answered.

It's a completely new programming language for deploying contracts on Ethereum platform created by Vitalik Buterin.

To all that gave answers, thanks a lot, it has given me a little knowledge about it now. Going further with research about this.

This is a programming language used for the development of smart contracts which are parts of the code in Blockchain, but about how I operate it still does not fully understand

Solidity is now programming language on ethereum. This programming language is designed for implementing smart contracts. It's main developers Christian reitwiessner and Alex beregszaszi.

I guess this should be something that i might be interested in, and would love to put to practice soon. Does it have it's own special form of IDE or compiler?.
