First NFT

Now, you're able to mint your first NFT. We will use the deployed smart contract in the previous section to mint a new NFT. Every NFT must have metadata. Using the NFT Kit, you have two options to provide the NFT metadata. Either give the metadata URI directly or let the NFT Kit generate the metadata URI based on IPFS. This tutorial will provide the metadata and let the NFT Kit generate the metadata URI.

We also need to provide the token id and the recipient account for the NFT.

The amount parameter must be an empty string because the type of the deployed smart contract is "SINGLE". If you use the "MULTIPLE" smart contract type, you should provide the number of copies of the minted NFT.
