Updated zeppelin.sh Added cautionary comment for two sed commands that depend on the order of occurrence of the patterns in the files. L122, and L123 both are referencing the 3rd occurrence of the patterns from their respective files. This could result in an error in the future when the code is further modified. |

The Solidity Contract-Oriented Programming Language
You can talk to us on Gitter and Matrix, tweet at us on Twitter or create a new topic in the Solidity forum. Questions, feedback, and suggestions are welcome!
Solidity is a statically typed, contract-oriented, high-level language for implementing smart contracts on the Ethereum platform.
For a good overview and starting point, please check out the official Solidity Language Portal.
Table of Contents
Background
Solidity is a statically-typed curly-braces programming language designed for developing smart contracts that run on the Ethereum Virtual Machine. Smart contracts are programs that are executed inside a peer-to-peer network where nobody has special authority over the execution, and thus they allow to implement tokens of value, ownership, voting, and other kinds of logic.
When deploying contracts, you should use the latest released version of Solidity. This is because breaking changes, as well as new features and bug fixes are introduced regularly. We currently use a 0.x version number to indicate this fast pace of change.
Build and Install
Instructions about how to build and install the Solidity compiler can be found in the Solidity documentation.
Example
A "Hello World" program in Solidity is of even less use than in other languages, but still:
// SPDX-License-Identifier: MIT
pragma solidity >=0.6.0 <0.9.0;
contract HelloWorld {
function helloWorld() external pure returns (string memory) {
return "Hello, World!";
}
}
To get started with Solidity, you can use Remix, which is a browser-based IDE. Here are some example contracts:
Documentation

Development
Solidity is still under development. Contributions are always welcome! Please follow the Developers Guide if you want to help.
You can find our current feature and bug priorities for forthcoming releases in the projects section.
