  1. Great Tutorial! Thanks! Just what I needed. However, something to note: when using npm – 1. name can no longer contain special characters (“~’!()*”)

    So you have to take out the ‘ in npm i -D @nomiclabs/hardhat-ethers ‘ethers@^5.0.0’ or else you get a full ERR! message that it’s not found. Should update it to make it easier for newer programmers.

  2. Cheers man! Fantastic article, super helpful for new blockchain developers. One quick question:

    If I wanted to upload a folder of NFTs all at once & I had a folder of JSON files, how would my minting function change? i.e. how could I make the mint function go from one JSON to another with the same IPFS hash?

  3. Hi
    Ethers install step returns an error

    npm ERR! code E404
    npm ERR! 404 Not Found – GET https://registry.npmjs.org/%27ethers – Not found
    npm ERR! 404
    npm ERR! 404 ”[email protected]” is not in the npm registry.
    npm ERR! 404 Your package name is not valid, because
    npm ERR! 404 1. name can no longer contain special characters (“~’!()*”)
    npm ERR! 404
    npm ERR! 404 Note that you can also install from a
    npm ERR! 404 tarball, folder, http url, or git url.
