+# Building a Minimal dApp on Base
+
+This guide walks through creating a very small decentralized application deployed on the **Base Sepolia Testnet**.  
+It includes a Solidity contract, deployment script and a minimal HTML/JS frontend.
+
+---
+
+## 1. Prerequisites
+
+- Node.js 18+
+- npm or yarn
+- Foundry or Hardhat
+- A wallet (Metamask, Rabby, etc.)
+- At least 0.001 BASE Sepolia testnet ETH  
+  (from https://faucet.circle.com or https://www.alchemy.com/faucets/base-sepolia)
+
+---
+
+## 2. Create a Basic Solidity Contract
+
+Create a file:
+
+`contracts/Counter.sol`
+
+```solidity
+// SPDX-License-Identifier: MIT
+pragma solidity ^0.8.21;
+
+contract Counter {
+    uint256 public count;
+
+    function increment() external {
+        count += 1;
+    }
+}
+```
+
+---
+
+## 3. Deployment Script (Hardhat)
+
+Create a file:
+
+`scripts/deploy.js`
+
+```javascript
+const hre = require("hardhat");
+
+async function main() {
+  const Counter = await hre.ethers.getContractFactory("Counter");
+  const counter = await Counter.deploy();
+
+  await counter.waitForDeployment();
+  console.log("Counter deployed to:", await counter.getAddress());
+}
+
+main().catch((error) => {
+  console.error(error);
+  process.exitCode = 1;
+});
+```
+
+Run the deployment:
+
+```
+npx hardhat run scripts/deploy.js --network base-sepolia
+```
+
+---
+
+## 4. Minimal Frontend (HTML + JS)
+
+Create a file:
+
+`index.html`
+
+```html
+<!DOCTYPE html>
+<html>
+<head>
+  <title>Base Minimal dApp</title>
+</head>
+<body>
+  <h1>Base Counter dApp</h1>
+
+  <button id="inc">Increment</button>
+  <p id="count">Loading...</p>
+
+  <script type="module">
+    import { ethers } from "https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/ethers@6.7.1/dist/ethers.min.js";
+
+    const contractAddress = "YOUR_DEPLOYED_CONTRACT_ADDRESS";
+    const abi = [
+      "function count() view returns (uint256)",
+      "function increment()"
+    ];
+
+    const provider = new ethers.BrowserProvider(window.ethereum);
+    const signer = await provider.getSigner();
+    const contract = new ethers.Contract(contractAddress, abi, signer);
+
+    async function update() {
+      const c = await contract.count();
+      document.getElementById("count").innerText = c;
+    }
+
+    document.getElementById("inc").onclick = async () => {
+      await contract.increment();
+      update();
+    };
+
+    update();
+  </script>
+
+</body>
+</html>
+```
+
+---
+
+## 5. Running the Example
+
+1. Deploy contract  
+2. Replace `YOUR_DEPLOYED_CONTRACT_ADDRESS` in `index.html`  
+3. Open the HTML file in the browser  
+4. Connect wallet → click “Increment”  
+5. You now interact with a smart contract on **Base Sepolia**
+
+---
+
+## 6. Notes
+
+- This is intentionally minimal  
+- Can be extended using OnchainKit, React, Wagmi, Vite, etc.  
+- Works on any EVM chain; configured here for Base
