Hey everyone! If you're interested in getting the basics down on connecting your new App or dApp to the Ethereum blockchain and also connecting a wallet like MetaMask, here is Part 1 article of my journey: https://blake-wood-bst.medium.com/connecting-to-metamask-react-js-custom-hook-state-management-2f1f3203f509
In this article I will explore how to setup a React Application that will connect to MetaMask and show your account info.
I will also show how to create a Custom Hook in this application that will store the State of your current connection status / account info with MetaMask.
We will also wrap your React app in a Provider that will utilize Web3 to transact with Smart Contracts or send ETH to other accounts that you specify and sign those transactions.
If you like the article please give me a clap and a follow! Bless
