Writing an ERC-20 Token Contract with OpenZeppelin

  • ERC20: Inherits from the OpenZeppelin ERC20 contract, which implements the standard ERC-20 functions and events.
  • Ownable: Provides basic authorization control, allowing the contract owner to perform restricted actions.
  • Constructor: Initializes the token with a name, symbol, and initial supply, which is minted to the contract creator’s address.
  • Mint Function: Allows the contract owner to mint new tokens to a specified address.
  • Burn Function: Allows token holders to destroy (burn) their tokens, reducing the total supply.

Next, you need to compile your contract to ensure there are no errors.
