# Ethereum-based NFT Contract Using Hardhat
Welcome to the Ethereum-based NFT Contract built using Hardhat! This repository guides you through creating your very own basic NFT (Non-Fungible Token) contract on the Ethereum blockchain. Whether you're a developer looking to delve into the world of NFTs or simply exploring Ethereum's capabilities, this is the perfect place to start.
## Prerequisites
Before you get started, make sure you have `node` and `npm` installed. If not, you can download them from [here](https://nodejs.org/).
## Getting Started
### 1. Install Required Packages
To set up the environment for the project, run:
```
npm install --save-dev hardhat @nomicfoundation/hardhat-toolbox
```
Next, to include the ERC271 module for OpenZeppelin NFT contracts, run:
```
npm install --save-dev @openzeppelin/contracts
```
### 2. Configure Environment Variables
You will need to create and configure a `.env` file in the root directory of the project. Use this command for setting up env file
```
npm install dotenv
```
In this file, add:
```
QUICKNODE_URL=YOUR_QUICKNODE_URL
PRIVATE_KEY=YOUR_METAMASK_PRIVATE_KEY
```
Replace `YOUR_QUICKNODE_URL` with the URL which can be fetched from [QuickNode](https://www.quicknode.com/). And, replace `YOUR_METAMASK_PRIVATE_KEY` with the private key from your MetaMask.
**Note**: Be cautious with your private key. Never share it, commit it, or expose it in any public forum. Always keep it confidential.
### 3. Run the Project
After setting up the environment and configuring the variables, you're all set! To execute the project, simply run:
```
npx hardhat run scripts/deploy.js --network sepolia
```
Copy the contract address it gives you, and look it up on Sepolia Etherscan - open up the first transaction there and it will show you that a NFT was minted and transfered to your address!
## Conclusion
Congratulations! You've now set up and are ready to deploy your very own Ethereum-based NFT contract. Explore the codebase, try deploying your NFT, and have fun experimenting!
