[dev] What's the algorithm of launching NFT collection on my own website?

[naddika]

I'm interested only in a few steps that aren't clear to me, from the point of view of a developer:

• create an NFT smart contract (DONE)
• deploy it (DONE, on testnet)
• ??? (....)
• ???
• sell NFTs

After I've delployed a contract, what's left to make the future NFTs go live? How to "upload" (?) my future NFTs, and where to, in order to then display them on my website ?

Do I have to mint NFTs first to then show them on my webiste?
Or will users mint them first? If so, what and how would I then display on my website?

Is which sequence is it usually done whenever a celebrity or company launches his NFT collection to sell it on their website?

you should save your NFT metadata on IPFS and save that hash into the smart contract so it will display. And for your question How to upload, you should do the metadate as a folder and this folder will have a hash for the IPFS and for example: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/1.json will corresponding to first token for your smart contract NFT.

@naddika I think you have not watched lesson 15 otherwise your doubts would have been clear.
