  Blockchain or if you want to learn about this
  technology. If you have basic knowledge about
  computers and coding, this will help in better
  understanding the concepts of the blockchain.
• Companies who are currently hiring for Blockchain
  are looking for candidates who know how to
  improvise the current technology and come up with
  something new this is only possible if you have
  thorough technical knowledge.

What are the prerequisites for become a
Blockchain
Developer?

• 1. To being learning about blockchain, you
  must start off by learning the basics of
  Blockchain and cryptocurrency. You can begin this
  by joining various blockchain communities and

• Also, an understanding of basic architectures
  like MVVM, MVC, Document-View Architecture, MVC,
  and Microservices, knowing this will help you
  understand the difference between the
  conventional and decentralised system.
• Besides, you must also learn the fundamentals of
  Communication Architectures. Its always advisable
  that you must know the programming languages like
  C, C or JavaScript. If you are a fresher, you
  must first gear up to learn all the subjects as
  mentioned earlier so that it becomes easy for you

  crucial role in writing smart contracts. Solidity
  is an object-oriented programing language which
  is quite similar to ECMA Script and JavaScript.
• Hyperledger
• It is a permission private Blockchain which plays
  a key role in developing Hyperledger tools. You
  must have knowledge about two projects
• Hyperledger Fabric
• Hyperledger Composer

Final call

• The Blockchain is a revolutionary technology
  which is here to change the course of doing
  business and rendering services across various
  business niches. This has made many big names in
  the industries to explore various aspects of this
  technology and its multifaceted application. It
  has given rise to the need for Blockchain
  Developers who can aid the process of development
  of this platform.
