NOTE: THIS VIDEO IS OUTDATED and is still posted for historical purposes. Ethereum will not scale to any substantial level. I am currently using BSV instead. Refer to my more recent videos and interviews in the 'Community Tab'.

In this video I talk about how you can interface with the ethereum network from your own app. (In this case a macOS app where we can make a visual block explorer.)

We first get a client running. (There are several we could choose from) We use geth in this video.

Then we communicate with the client as it runs in the background using JSON RPC.

If you want to tip this video here is an ethereum address for this video:
