Your First Anoma App

Prerequisites

Before creating your first Anoma dApp, make sure to have Juvix installed.

Building HelloWorld

The goal of this tutorial is to

1. Define a "Hello World!" Resource.
2. Add a resource label.
3. Write a transaction function initializing the resource.

Project Setup

Let's fly through the project setup by typing the following in our terminal.

{% code title="~/" %}

mkdir HelloWorld
cd HelloWorld
juvix init

{% endcode %}

In the following chapter, we're going to construct the scaffolding of the resource object and add our custom label.

Once the Juvix project is created, we want to change the Package.juvix file to the following:

{% code title="HelloWorld/" %}

module Package;

import PackageDescription.V2 open;

package : Package :=
  defaultPackage@{
    name := "simple-hello-world";
    dependencies :=
      [
        github "anoma" "juvix-stdlib" "v0.10.1";
        github "anoma" "anoma-applib" "v0.7.2";
        github "anoma" "juvix-mtl" "v0.2.1";
      ];
  };

{% endcode %}

Let's start with some Juvix code. We will first define an Anoma resource.
