-Creating Contracts
-******************
-
-Contracts can be created "from outside" via Ethereum transactions or from within Solidity contracts.
-
-IDEs, such as `Remix <https://remix.ethereum.org/>`_, make the creation process seamless using UI elements.
-
-Creating contracts programmatically on Ethereum is best done via using the JavaScript API `web3.js <https://github.com/ethereum/web3.js>`_.
-It has a function called `web3.eth.Contract <https://web3js.readthedocs.io/en/1.0/web3-eth-contract.html#new-contract>`_
-to facilitate contract creation.
-
-When a contract is created, its constructor_  (a function declared with the ``constructor`` keyword) is executed once.
-
-A constructor is optional. Only one constructor is allowed, which means
-overloading is not supported.
-
-After the constructor has executed, the final code of the contract is deployed to the
-blockchain. This code includes all public and external functions and all functions
-that are reachable from there through function calls. The deployed code does not
-include the constructor code or internal functions only called from the constructor.
-
-.. index:: constructor;arguments
-
-Internally, constructor arguments are passed :ref:`ABI encoded <ABI>` after the code of
-the contract itself, but you do not have to care about this if you use ``web3.js``.
-
-If a contract wants to create another contract, the source code
-(and the binary) of the created contract has to be known to the creator.
-This means that cyclic creation dependencies are impossible.
