## Content

As example we will use ERC-20 smart contract (any other Ethereum smart contracts can be deployed, ex.: ERC-721or etc.) What we need: Use the online BUIDL IDE created by Second State to create, deploy and test Solidity smart contracts: http://buidl.secondstate.io/parastate 2. Add a test network to Metamask: https://rpc.parastate.io:8545/ Get some Testnet STATE tokens from the Official ParaState Faucet: http://faucet.parastate.io Process: Open http://buidl.secondstate.io/parastate and import owner Metamask Account from Private Key: 2. Create your smart contract and review it: 3. Compile it and then Deploy to the chain: You will get success Tx in the LOG tab 4. Call function variables: name, decimals, owner and symbol: 5. Copy owner address to balanceOf and Call: 6. Then copy the address of Metamask account to where you gonna transfer new created tokens and set the value, then Transact: Once Tx is confirmed you will get Success) Final. Copy contract address of new generated token and check if tokens has arrived to address you sent: Happy coding! :)
