# REMIX - IDE

Developing Your First\
Decentralized Applications `dApps` On HeLa Chain

If you have developed dApps on Ethereum or `any EVM compatible chain` before, you will feel at home. It is exactly the same. But if you are new, don’t worry, this document will help you embark on your first dApp development on HeLa chain.\
There many platforms and utilities that you can use to develop dAPP. For example: REMIX, Truffle, HardHat, Foundry, etc.\
We will use REMIX for our first dAPP.\
Visit [http://remix.ethereum.org](http://remix.ethereum.org/)

Our first program is `HelloWorld.sol`

In Remix IDE, you will need to compile with a compatible compiler. Remember to select `Injected provider- MetaMask` in the deployment tab.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.helalabs.com/build-on-hela/remix-ide.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
