Getting Started
Explore how to improve user experience for smart contracts by building a frontend application using Next.js and Tailwind CSS. Learn why React is preferred for scalable UI development, how Next.js structures React projects, and how Tailwind aids styling. Understand the prerequisites like Metamask installation and prepare to create a Web3 app frontend from scratch.

Overview
We built a smart contract using Solidity that can be deployed on the Ethereum blockchain. Our smart contract works as expected, but it doesn’t offer the best user experience. We’ll now build a front-end application to make interacting with this smart contract easier. For this purpose, we’ll be using the Next.js framework and the Tailwind library. Before diving into the implementation, let’s explore the reasoning behind these choices.
The front-end tech stack
We might come across some arguments around the redundancy of using frameworks or libraries like React to ...
