This third course of the Blockchain specialization prepares you to design and develop end-to-end decentralized applications (Dapps) – which provide anyone with access to the blockchain’s features and services. You will use Truffle IDE, smart contracts, a simple web client and a MetaMask client. You will learn about the architecture of a Dapp: the front-end client interface, backed by the blockchain and smart contracts. The course covers the basic design of a Dapp, Truffle development process and commands (init, develop, test and migrate), test-driven development of Dapp, Dapp application models and emerging standards that are essential for predictable Dapp behavior.

TOP REVIEWS FROM DECENTRALIZED APPLICATIONS (DAPPS)
The Course Practical materials are old and don't work properly. It will be really helpful if the instructors update the Ethereum.ova VM
Good course. Handy having the downloadable app for the code, although I took the opportunity to install truffle and get things working on my own terminal.
This was a wonderful course. What I wished I knew before taking it was javascript. The programming which required knowledge of it was what made this course difficult for me.
The materials need to be updated to latest versions. Even you cannot modify the materials yet, may be, you can answer more regulary to the questions in the forum.
