create a self signed wildcard ssl cert for testing with nginx.conf example

just change out app_name for your purposes

openssl genrsa 2048 > app_name-wildcard.key

openssl req -new -x509 -nodes -sha1 -days 3650 -key app_name-wildcard.key > app_name-wildcard.cert

# Common Name (eg, your name or your server's hostname) []:*.app_name.com

Some generic writeup about common gas optimizations, etc.

Upgrade to at least 0.8.4

Using newer compiler versions and the optimizer gives gas optimizations and additional safety checks for free!

The advantages of versions 0.8.* over <0.8.0 are:

  • Safemath by default from 0.8.0 (can be more gas efficient than some library based safemath).
  • Low level inliner from 0.8.2, leads to cheaper runtime gas. Especially relevant when the contract has small functions. For
