TON Tutorials

01. Working with your first wallet

Create a wallet, fund it, initialize it, see in explorer, read/write to it with code

02. Writing your first smart contract

Create a simple counter smart contract, build and deploy it, read/write to it with code

03. Building your first web client

Create a simple client (TWA+web) that interacts with the counter smart contract

04. Testing your first smart contract

Create a test suite for the counter smart contract to make sure it works as expected

 

The Tutorial System

Design goals

• A concise list of tutorials that help new TON developers onboard
• Allow multiple community contributors to help maintain the tutorials
• Support multiple development flavors, tools and styles side by side
• Know when tutorials break (for example due to library changes) and need fixing

Build the tutorials

• Create the file .env in the project root with this content:

  MNEMONIC="unfold sugar water ..."

  The official mnemonic appears in Github repo secrets since it's also used in CI. This should be the 24 word mnemonic for a deployed testnet v4 wallet that contains at least 1 TON.

• Run ./build.sh

• Resulting files will be created in the docs/ directory, ready for Github Pages

Notice

Due to limitations in GitHub Actions, we are unable to use secrets to store a secure mnemonic for the wallet during the testing of pull requests from forked repositories by our contributors. As a result, we are currently using a public wallet with an exposed mnemonic in our test files when running tests in GH Actions.
