# The Solidity Contract-Oriented Programming Language
[![Join the chat at https://gitter.im/ethereum/solidity](https://badges.gitter.im/Join%20Chat.svg)](https://gitter.im/ethereum/solidity?utm_source=badge&utm_medium=badge&utm_campaign=pr-badge&utm_content=badge)

## Useful links
To get started you can find an introduction to the language in the [Solidity documentation](https://solidity.readthedocs.org). In the documentation, you can find [code examples](http://solidity.readthedocs.io/en/latest/solidity-by-example.html) as well as [a reference](http://solidity.readthedocs.io/en/latest/solidity-in-depth.html) of the syntax and details on how to write smart contracts.

You can start using [Solidity in your browser](https://ethereum.github.io/browser-solidity/) with no need to download or compile anything.

The changelog for this project can be found [here](https://github.com/ethereum/solidity/blob/develop/Changelog.md).

Solidity is still under development. So please do not hesitate and open an [issue in GitHub](https://github.com/ethereum/solidity/issues) if you encounter anything strange.

## Building
See the [Solidity documentation](http://solidity.readthedocs.io/en/latest/installing-solidity.html#building-from-source) for build instructions.
