Hardhat Boilerplate

• Hardhat Beginners Tutorial

Quick start

cp .env.example .env
yarn && yarn check-env

Once installed, let's run Hardhat's testing network:

yarn fork || npx hardhat node 

Then, on a new terminal, go to the repository's root folder and run this to deploy your contract:

npx hardhat run scripts/legacy-deploy.js --network localhost

Finally, we can run the frontend with:

cd frontend && yarn && yarn start

Open http://localhost:3000/ to see your Dapp. You will need to have Metamask installed and listening to localhost 8545.

What's Included?

This repository uses our recommended hardhat setup, by using our @nomicfoundation/hardhat-toolbox. When you use this plugin, you'll be able to:

• ethers.js and the hardhat-ethers.
• Tests with Mocha, Chai and our own Hardhat Chai Matchers.
• Hardhat Network Helpers.
• Verify the source code of your contracts with hardhat-etherscan.
• Get metrics on gas used via hardhat-gas-reporter.
• Measure tests coverage with solidity-coverage.

This project also includes a sample frontend/Dapp, which uses Create React App.

Troubleshooting

• Invalid nonce errors: if you are seeing this error on the npx hardhat node console, try resetting your Metamask account. This will reset the account's transaction history and also the nonce. Open Metamask, click on your account followed by Settings > Advanced > Reset Account.
