MatthewToken

A fully-functioning ERC20 token based on the Ethereum ERC20 Token Standard

General info

The purpose of this project was for me to understand the components and functionality of a ERC20 token contract.

In order to demo this project, please do the following:

$ git clone this repository to your local machine Install Truffle and Ganache on your local machine
Open Ganache and connect a workspace to the truffle-config.js file in the project directory
In the project root directory, run $ truffle migrate to deploy the token contract to your Ganache local node
Once the contract has successfully deployed, you can use Truffle's console to interact with the deployed contract

Example of contract interaction via Truffle console:

let instance = await MatthewToken.deployed()
instance.transferFrom('0x7D9D6fE36E1525dd0854BC9DFFFaA171580ABfFf', '0x8Af28DaeA7BBeEAF561695c5bAdCaa9163897f64', 1000)

List of features ready:

Query the total supply of tokens in circulation
Query the balance of tokens that a given address owns
Approve an address to spend a given amount of tokens on the contract owner's behalf
Transfer tokens safely between addresses

Project is: in progress
