In this case, we'll be extending from the xref:api:token/ERC777.adoc#ERC777[`ERC777`] contract, which provides an implementation with compatibility support for ERC20. The API is quite similar to that of xref:api:token/ERC777.adoc#ERC777[`ERC777`], and we'll once again make use of xref:api:token/ERC777.adoc#ERC777-_mint-address-address-uint256-bytes-bytes-[`_mint`] to assign the `initialSupply` to the deployer account. Unlike xref:api:token/ERC20.adoc#ERC20-_mint-address-uint256-[ERC20's `_mint`], this one includes some extra parameters, but you can safely ignore those for now.

-You'll notice both xref:api:token/ERC777.adoc#IERC777-name--[`name`] and xref:api:token/ERC777.adoc#IERC777-symbol--[`symbol`] are assigned, but not xref:api:token/ERC777.adoc#ERC777-decimals--[`decimals`]. The ERC777 specification makes it mandatory to include support for these functions (unlike ERC20, where it is optional and we had to include xref:api:token/ERC20.adoc#ERC20Detailed[`ERC20Detailed`]), but also mandates that `decimals` always returns a fixed value of `18`, so there's no need to set it ourselves. For a review of `decimals`'s role and importance, refer back to our xref:erc20.adoc#a-note-on-decimals[ERC20 guide].

Finally, we'll need to set the xref:api:token/ERC777.adoc#IERC777-defaultOperators--[`defaultOperators`]: special accounts (usually other smart contracts) that will be able to transfer tokens on behalf of their holders. If you're not planning on using operators in your token, you can simply pass an empty array. _Stay tuned for an upcoming in-depth guide on ERC777 operators!_
