LP-10002: Learning Path - Smart Contract Developer

Abstract

"I want to build apps, protocols, and money."

This path takes you from EVM basics to production DeFi on Lux.

Motivation

Smart contract development on Lux requires understanding EVM compatibility, precompiles, and cross-chain patterns. This path builds the skills needed to ship production-ready contracts.

Audience

Solidity developers, Web3 teams, protocol engineers.

Prerequisites

Complete LP-0011: Core Protocol Path first.

Outcome

After completing this path, you will be able to:

  • Deploy smart contracts on C-Chain
  • Build token standards (LRC-20/721/1155)
  • Implement DeFi primitives (AMMs, lending, vaults)
  • Optimize for Lux precompiles

Hands-On Projects

After each stage, build:

  1. After Stage 2: Deploy an LRC-20 token with minting
  2. After Stage 3: Build a minimal AMM (Uniswap V2 style)
  3. After Stage 4: Integrate wallet connection
  4. After Stage 5: Optimize AMM with DEX precompile
