The Best Stack For Building Ethereum Apps And How To One Shot Bangers
summary
Speedruns a Scaffold-ETH project: run Scaffold-ETH init, spin up a local Anvil chain, hot-reload a burner-wallet front end and use the Debug Contracts panel. Live-edits a starter counter to add a payable price curve and front-end hooks (useScaffoldRead / useScaffoldWrite). Uses Cursor/Claude to one-shot a FOMO‑3D clone (last clicker wins), discovers a local block‑timestamp timer bug, fixes logic, deploys the contract to Arbitrum and the front end to IPFS; pot ≈ $0.41, 5‑minute round, deployed live.
