Using Remix

This tutorial will show you how to compile and deploy an existing smart contract using Remix.
Remix IDE is a no-setup smart contract development tool with a GUI. Beginners and experts alike will benefit from Remix. Remix plays well with other tools, and allows for a simple deployment process to the chain of your choice. The Remix Project also can serve as a learning lab for teaching and experimenting with EVM-compatible chains.
- Install Metamask
- Configure KuCoin Community Chain Testnet on Metamask
- Get Testnet token
- Create a file on Remix
- Upload or code the smart contract to the IDE
- Compile the smart contract
- Connect the application to KCC Testnet via Metamask
- Deploy the smart contract
To start building a smart contract, click on New File and name it as
HelloWorld.sol
.
Copy the code given below to
HelloWorld.sol
file// SPDX-License-Identifier: MIT
// Specifies that the source code is for a version
// of Solidity greater than 0.8.15
pragma solidity ^0.8.15;
contract HelloWorld {
// A publicly accessible function that takes a string as a parameter
// and echoes the `message`
function echo(string memory message) public pure returns (string memory) {
return message;
}
}
The first line,
pragma solidity ^0.8.15
specifies that the source code is for a Solidity version greater than 0.8.15. Pragmas are common instructions for compilers about how to treat the source code (e.g., pragma once).- Switch to the Compiler tab
- Select compiler version 0.8.15
- Now, compile
HelloWorld.sol
- After successful compilation, it will show a green tick mark on the Compiler tab button

In both Testnet and Mainnet, you do the below to deploy your smart contract using Remix.
- Navigate to the Deployment tab
- Select Injected Provider Metamask in the Environment dropdown, and your contract


- Accept the Connect request received in MetaMask. You can also manually launch MetaMask if the popup doesn't open by default
- In MetaMask, once a transaction is deployed, you will receive another MetaMask pop-up that requires you to confirm the transaction. You just need to confirm the transaction

Congratulations! You have successfully deployed the
HelloWorld
Smart Contract to the KuCoin Community Chain Testnet. You can start interacting with your Smart Contract. Check the deployment status at https://scan-testnet.kcc.network/
