Coding Journey: An Idea turned Obsession

[abcoathup]

Hi @Proteu5,

Thank you for going through the tutorial. I'm glad you could create an NFT on a testnet after following it.

@Proteu5

Knowing to run “npm install @truffle/HDWallet-Provider” a super beginner may be lost without the ‘npm install’ part but also I knew to add this to my truffle config file

I had hoped that people could use Connecting to Public Test Networks with Truffle but it sounds like I should copy some more key points from that tutorial to make it easier.

@Proteu5

I actually ran into an issue, my mistake, I forgot the trailing forward-slash on the TokenURI so it looked like:

https://my-json-server.typicode.com/n0rthbridge/json-db/tokens0

I think the formatting of the URI is going to be problematic so definitely worth adding a test for.

@Proteu5

You did a perfect job. You shaved over an hour of work off of my method of using Heroku by using Github, thank you for sharing that, that made my day.

Awesome to hear. I need to add more about the JSON hosting, as this is just for Beta. For production need to host somewhere with higher guarantees on availability.

My thought here is that projects should get a domain name and use that in their baseURI so then they can change where the domain name points to rather than having to change the URI. This would allow starting with something basic, with the option to move to somewhere with higher availability.
