Local SSL websites on macOS Sierra

These instructions will guide you through the process of setting up local, trusted websites on your own computer.

These instructions are intended to be used on macOS Sierra, but they have been known to work in El Capitan, Yosemite, Mavericks, and Mountain Lion.

NOTE: You may substitute the edit command for nano, vim, or whatever the editor of your choice is. Personally, I forward the edit command to Sublime Text:

Sending Ether Cheat Sheet

TLDR

🥇 Instead of sending Ether, use the withdrawal pattern

🥈 If you really need to send Ether, use a safe wrapper like OpenZeppelin's Address.sendValue(addr, amount)

🥉 If you really need to send Ether without dependencies, use (bool success, ) = addr.call{value: amount}("")
