In the previous article I showed you how to mint Solana NFT with the Metaplex sdk and the Solana SDK in native Rust.
In this article we will mint our NFt using anchor, which is a Solana program framework. Learn more about anchor in this link
Solana is a public, permissionless blockchain launched in 2020. It leverages computer hardware for its high throughput and performance. Solana has been the pioneer in cutting-edge innovation leading in the adoption of tech like concurrent Merkle trees, interfaces, token-2022...etc
I briefly talked about some differences between Solana and EVM chains previously and in this article I will take you through the process of minting an NFT using the Rust Solana SDK and the MetapleX SDK.
In this article we will implement a backend api server for a contacts application that uses Postgres for persistent data storage.
NOTE: I am working on Linux and some of these instructions might not work for Other OSs.
We will use Actix - a powerful and pragmatic web framework, diesel - 'a safe & extensible rust ORM' and Postgres for persistent data storage.
