# A2.0: Setting Up a Bitcoin Regtest
While developing Bitcoin applications, you might want to use your applications isolated from any public Blockchain such as the Mainnet or the Testnet.
You can create a Blockchain from scratch using the Regtest, with one main advantage over Testnet: you choose when to create new blocks, so you have complete control over the environment.
## Objectives for This Chapter
After working through this chapter, a developer will be able to:
* Create your own Blockchain from scratch
* Generate/mine blocks and get the rewards
* Get balance and interact with Bitcoind in a private way
## Table of Contents
* [Section One: Starting the Regtest](A3_1_Starting_the_Regtest.md)
* [Section Two: Mining with Regtest](A3_2_Mining_with_Regtest.md)
* [Section Three: Testing with Regtest](A3_3_Testing_with_Regtest.md)

# Appendix III: Using Bitcoin Regtest
The majority of this course presumes that you will either use the Mainnet or Testnet. However, those aren't the only choices. While developing Bitcoin applications, you might want to keep your applications isolated from these public blockchains. You can create a Blockchain from scratch using the Regtest, which has one other major advantage over Testnet: you choose when to create new blocks, so you have complete control over the environment.
## Objectives for This Chapter
After working through this chapter, a developer will be able to:
* Create a blockchain from scratch
* Use that blockchain to interact with `bitcoind` in a private way
* Use that blockchain to generate blocks and get the rewards
Supporting objectives include the ability to:
* Understand the advantages of Regtest
