Overview of DeFi application frontend development

In this chapter, we will start to build the frontend of the DeFi application. When we talk about the frontend, it involves all aspects of UI, event handling, and EVM blockchain connectivity. We will dive into more details in this section.

Running the UI wireframe

Because the book focuses mainly on DeFi application development, we have the UI wireframe ready, along with the required packages, in the chapter03-start branch of the git repository of this book (https://github.com/PacktPublishing/Building-Full-stack-DeFi-Application). If you have worked on the code since the last chapter or already cloned the repository on your local environment, here are the commands to pull the code of the wireframe from the project’s directory:

$ git checkout chapter03-start
$ git pull origin chapter03-start

If you are starting from scratch, you can get the code of the chapter03-start branch and change the directory to Building-Full-stack...
