Testnet is the perfect proving ground for any new application. Learn how to use the Flow toolchain to deploy your dapp to Testnet.
Testnet is the closest you will get to the real thing. In order to uncover bugs that may only appear on a real network, you should thoroughly test your dapp on Testnet before considering a Mainnet release.

Learn about the steps you will need to take to promote your dapp from Testnet to Mainnet.
