Uniswap Introduction

Uniswap is one of the most important decentralized exchanges (DEXs) in the Ethereum ecosystem. If you’re building DeFi applications, understanding how Uniswap works is essential.

In this section, we’ll explore Uniswap v3 and v4, focusing on the core mechanics that make automated market makers work. We’ll cover everything from pool initialization to swaps, with practical code examples you can try yourself.
