Chromia for EVM developers
If you build on EVM chains with Solidity, this guide shows you how to move to building decentralized applications (dapps) on Chromia with Rell, its native language. You will study the architecture of the Chromia platform and work through code examples that map familiar Solidity concepts to their Chromia equivalents.
You will see what sets Chromia apart, including its relational blockchain model and how that model contrasts with conventional EVM-based chains. The guide also gives you practical guidance on configuring your development environment, deploying contracts, and connecting to existing Chromia tools and services.
The course expects prior experience with Solidity and EVM development and concentrates on the move to Chromia. Once you finish, you should be ready to use Rell for your next dapp on Chromia.
