ConsenSys, Microsoft, and EY launch the Baseline protocol. ScanTrust and Unilever provide end-to-end traceability for millions of units. NTT Data, Hitachi, and Accenture move their use cases to production.

As blockchain technology moves ever-forward, so has the world of enterprise blockchains emerged and grown. Chainstack has produced a report that investigates the activity of developer communities surrounding the leading protocols.

As a developer advocate over at Chainstack, I’ve worked closely with both developers who are creating on top of Ethereum, and the support has been great. It helps that Ethereum has a great developer community.

Building on top of Ethereum has never been easier. Frameworks such as the ever-popular Truffle-suite and Embark make it very easy for developers to quickly deploy contracts and interact with them. These frameworks, unfortunately, are best suited for testing and experimentation.

In part 2 of the Trust Trilogy, I ended with the promise of larger ecosystems and markets made possible through a simple mind-shift, where collaboration is the norm and the blockchain is the default trusted execution environment.

This guide is intended for anyone interested in experimenting with Quorum. It is an introduction to deploying contracts and sending both public and private Quorum transactions using the web3.js library.
