Approach:
Define Requirements: Identifies the tools needed to deploy Smart Contracts on Stellar, including dependencies, environment configurations, and a working example.

Set Up the Environment: Provides detailed steps for installing related tools, setting up the Stellar testnet, and preparing a wallet for development.

Connect and Configure the Wallet: Ensures that the wallet is properly connected to the Stellar network and has test funds to perform the necessary operations.

Build and Deploy Contracts: Develops a section explaining how to build and deploy Smart Contracts, ensuring clarity in the commands and configurations used.

Test and Run: Includes a practical example for testing a deployed Smart Contract, detailing the steps and showing expected results.

Troubleshoot: Provides a section with possible common errors during the process, along with clear solutions and debugging recommendations.

Validate the Process: Ensure that all steps have been tested in a controlled environment, ensuring that the process is reproducible by novice developers.
