Token Lab Quickstart: Connect, Get Testnet ETH, Deploy Your First ERC-20
New to Token Tool Hub? This quickstart shows you how to connect your wallet, grab testnet funds, and deploy a standard ERC-20 in minutes.
1) Connect your wallet
- Open /token-lab/ on desktop (Chrome/Brave + MetaMask) or inside the MetaMask in-app browser on mobile.
- Click Connect Wallet. Approve the connection in MetaMask.
2) Choose a test network
From the Network menu, pick one of the supported testnets:
- Ethereum Sepolia (ETH)
- Polygon Amoy (MATIC)
- Base Sepolia (ETH)
- Arbitrum Sepolia (ETH)
Click Switch Network and approve in MetaMask (the Lab will add it automatically if missing).
3) Get testnet funds
Click Get Test ETH and claim some funds from the faucet. You only need a little for deployment.
4) Generate your token contract
- In the No-Code Wizard, fill:
- Token Name (e.g., My Test Token)
- Token Symbol (e.g., MTT)
- Total Supply (e.g., 1,000,000)
- Mintable? Choose Yes/No
- Click Generate Contract. The code appears and a new tab opens in Remix with your contract preloaded.
5) Compile & deploy in Remix
- In Remix (left sidebar), click Solidity Compiler → compile (0.8.x).
- Click Deploy & Run → set Environment = Injected Provider (MetaMask).
- Click Deploy. Approve the transaction in MetaMask.
6) Confirm and view it on the explorer
After deployment, copy the contract address. Open the explorer link shown in the Lab (e.g., Sepolia Etherscan) and paste the address to view transactions and holders.
