Solidity
The most widely used programming language for writing EVM compatible smart contracts.
What is Solidity?
Solidity is an object-oriented, high-level programming language for writing smart contracts on the Ethereum Virtual Machine, originally proposed in August 2014 and developed by the Ethereum foundation. Seen in its syntax and inheritance, Solidity is heavily influenced by C++, Python and JavaScript. Developers using Solidity can find the largest smart contract developer community online and a wealth of compatible tools. There are over 8 million deployed smart contracts written in Solidity.
