I will walk you through how to compile and run your first smart contract on a local test environment.

This will include 

1. Installing Solidity, which used used to compile the contract into byte code that can be deployed on the blockchain.
2. Installing Geth, which runs a local node and also has a JavaScript command line that can be used to talk to the blockchain.
3. Create a private local node, so you can experiment without spending money.
4. Create a couple of test accounts
5. Deploy the smart contract into the test blockchain
6. Call the functions of our smart contract to see that it is working.

We do not cover:

1. Solidity programming in depth, only show how to set up environment, compile and interact with contract.
2. Workflow and IDE's for programming
