+.. warning::
+ Since software is written by humans, it can have bugs. Thus, also
+ smart contracts should be created following well-known best-practices in
+ software development. This includes code review, testing, audits and correctness proofs.
+ Also note that users are sometimes more confident in code than its authors.
+ Finally, blockchains have their own things to watch out for, so please take
+ a look at the section :ref:`security_considerations`.
