Solidity: History & Art

Solidity is a programming language for implementing smart contracts on various blockchain platforms, most notably Ethereum. Solidity is licensed under GNU General Public License v3.0. Solidity was designed by Gavin Wood[non-primary source needed] and developed by Christian Reitwiessner, Alex Beregszaszi, and several former Ethereum core contributors.…

How Solidity connects Entity context

The extracted context around Solidity shows recurring relationship patterns in the source. For example, Solidity → ABI, C3, ECMAScript, ECMAScript-like, Ethereum Virtual Machine, EVM, EVM-targeting, It, Mutan, Natural Language Specification, Serpent, The Solidity Another extracted example is Solidity → Cornell University, Current, DAO, Ethereum, Ethereum Virtual Machine, EVM, He, In, Many, The DAO, Turing-completeness. Use these groups to spot repeated connection types before inspecting the individual relationships.
