* Give it any name, for example `TestContracts.sol`
* Open the fil and write your code.

*You can copy this example code and paste it there.*&#x20;

{% code overflow="wrap" %}

```
// SPDX-License-Identifier: MITpragma solidity ^0.7.0;

import "https://github.com/OpenZeppelin/openzeppelin-contracts/blob/v3.4.0-solc-0.7/contracts/token/ERC20/ERC20.sol";

contract Token is ERC20 {
    constructor () ERC20("Example Token Hekla", "ETH") {        
        _mint(msg.sender, 1000000 * (10 ** uint256(decimals())));    
    }
}
```

{% endcode %}

#### Compile <a href="#compile" id="compile"></a>

Change the Compiler version to `0.7.0+commit.9e61f92b`

Click on Compile button and compile it.&#x20;

If your contract is complied sucessfully, you can deply it directly from the Remix IDE.

#### Deploy <a href="#deploy" id="deploy"></a>

* Change the Environment to `Injected Provider - MetaMask`
