What is the role of a 'provider' in Web3.js? Give an example of how you would initialize a Web3.js instance with a provider.

A strong answer will demonstrate knowledge of common providers like HttpProvider, WebsocketProvider, or the in-browser provider (MetaMask). Incorrect syntax or misunderstanding the connection mechanism are red flags.
Blockchain Developer · intermediate

A strong answer will mention obtaining the ABI from compilation artifacts (e.g., Hardhat/Truffle) or block explorers. Confusion about their roles is a red flag.
