How to build a simple blockchain of your own?

I have been looking into different blockchain platforms out there and I decided that I need to make a simple one of my own to have a better understanding of the concepts.

Started looking into it and turns out the first challenge is to create the first block!

Though there are samples of how to do it in various languages (mostly C++), just for the sake of excitement, I will try to do it using .Net Core.

Of course, it is a chain and it does not come out of thin air!

This first block is called “Genesis Block” which I will try to find out how to create one.
