Gas Optimization Techniques: Use efficient data types, minimize storage operations, use events instead of storage for logging, and avoid loops and complex calculations.
Scalability Solutions: Utilize layer 2 solutions such as Optimistic Rollups or zk-Rollups, leverage sharding and sidechains, and break down large contracts into smaller modular components.
Security Best Practices: Use audited libraries, prevent reentrancy attacks, and thoroughly test smart contracts using testing frameworks.
Future-Proofing Your Smart Contracts: Implement upgradeable contracts using proxy patterns, stay updated with Ethereum Improvement Proposals (EIPs), and adopt new standards.
