Tutorial on building and deploying Soroban tokens using OpenZeppelin Contract Wizard, which now supports Stellar. Demonstrates creating a fungible token contract with customizable features like minting, burning, and pausing, then deploying it to testnet in minutes.
This tutorial walks through using OpenZeppelin's Contract Wizard to build Soroban smart contracts on Stellar. The wizard allows developers to configure fungible token contracts with parameters like token name, symbol, pre-mint amount, and optional features such as mintability, burnability, and pauseability. The speaker demonstrates the complete workflow: forking the OpenZeppelin library locally, compiling the contract to WebAssembly using Rust, funding a testnet account via Stellar Labs, deploying the contract to testnet, and executing a token transfer. The tutorial emphasizes that this integration makes Soroban development significantly more accessible, and hints at future expansions with additional modules and libraries to provide foundation layers for developers.
