# Connect MetaMask to GateChain
"MetaMask" is created to build a more safe and accessible "Ethereum" network. It connects users to blockchain and manage accounts, supported on Chrome, Brave and Safari.
In this tutorial, we will use MetaMask wallet to manage your account assets in GateChain network;
If you have not downloaded the MetaMask wallet, please refer to this tutorial to install the wallet: Install MetaMask
Before issuing the contract, please ensure that the wallet has been switched to the GateChain network,If you have not added GateChain network, please add it according to the following configuration:
Network name: GateChain
RPC URL: https://evm.nodeinfo.cc
Chain ID: 86
Symbol: GT
Block explorer: https://gatescan.org/
# Get GT tokens
- Transfer to metamask wallet account through gatechain mainnet gt account.
- Through gate.io withdraw to metamask wallet account Please select "GateChain/GRC20" instead of "ETH/ERC20".
# Writing contracts using Remix or Truffle
This tutorial details the instructions for writing Remix,Please refer to this document for truffle writing instructions: Truffle
Remix is an open sourced Solidity IDE that's used to write, compile and debug contracts. Solidity is the programming language designed for developing smart contracts on Ethereum.
# Create Contract
1.Open remix website（ Click to enter ），click “New File” to create a XXX.sol file.
2.Click the file you created, and start to write your own smart contract code.
3.The following is a development example of ERC-721 we provide:
First install the environment
npm install @openzeppelin/contracts
Example(For reference only):
pragma solidity ^0.8.0;
import "@openzeppelin/contracts/token/ERC721/ERC721.sol";
contract MyCollectible is ERC721 {
constructor() ERC721("MyCollectible", "MCO") {
}
}
4.The following is a development example of ERC-1155 we provide:
First install the environment
npm install @openzeppelin/contracts
Example(For reference only):
pragma solidity ^0.8.0;
import "@openzeppelin/contracts/token/ERC1155/ERC1155.sol";
contract MyCollectible is ERC1155 {
constructor() ERC1155("https://token-cdn-domain/{id}.json") {
}
}
5.Once the development is completed, start compiling smart contract.
# Deploy and Interact with Smart Contract
Once compilation is completed, start deploying the smart contract.
Click“Deploy” to start to deploy the smart contract. Jump to MetaMask to connect to your account
（Make sure MetaMask network is on GateChain）
Open the deployed contract and you can choose a functionality to interact with MetaMask!
Query details about contract interaction on the gatechain block explorer.

Example of mint transactions for ERC-721: Click to enter

If you are new to smart contract development, please refer to this document to learn how to develop and compile contracts.

Current NFT contracts are generally developed based on two official Ethereum specifications: ERC721 and ERC1155. For the difference between these two protocols, please refer to the official Ethereum documentation:
