Chainlink VRF v1 vs V2

[PatrickAlphaC]

So, Chainlink VRFv2 has been released, but we still use Chainlink V1 in the video.

To follow along with the video & the docs, you can view Chainlink VRFv1 docs here.

V2 to is just crazy and the Subscription Management is amazing!!

yeah, V2 is great but it became complicated for implementation.

@PatrickAlphaC the VRFv1 documentation is now linking to a 404 page.
Wondering which contract to use now to follow the tutorial or if one should learn VRFv2 now instead. Thanks!

EDIT: found the v1 documentation but under a new link so perhaps it could be good to change it in this topic :)

@emilrueh
Thanks for the hint, I changed the link to the new one :)

Thanks! Please also change it on the original tutorial repo under Lesson 7 below the code as it wants to link us to the v1 docs but redirects to 404: https://github.com/smartcontractkit/full-blockchain-solidity-course-py#lesson-7-smartcontract-lottery
