I know that I can access the live Ethereum blockchain (and the test "ropsten" blockchain) blockchain using geth
, and I know I can access a fake local blockchain with tools like truffle
.
What I'd like to know is ways to access the live blockchain without needing to download the entire thing.
Ideally with instructions or links to instructions that are straight forward enough that I can actually go and put something on the blockchain right now.
When I say access, I'd like to do the following:
- install my own smart contracts
- run smart contracts
