This relates generally to a system and method to generate a blockchain application for different blockchain technologies. The system provides a blockchain development framework that allows business application (i.e., logic) to be written once irrespective of underlying blockchain technologies. The blockchain development framework works in two stages. In the first stage, a user interface is provided to capture the metadata and a set of functions. Further, the blockchain development framework generates underlying blockchain technology specific code in the second stage. The user can write business logics for the business use case in a platform agnostic programming language. The smart contract can then be compiled and deployed on the underlying blockchain platform specified by the user. This enables easy portability among blockchain technologies and thus reduces human intervention while programming.
