nil-hardhat-example

🚀 Overview

This repository demonstrates how to deploy and interact with smart contracts on the =nil; blockchain using Hardhat and our custom plugin. The =nil; blockchain is an Ethereum Layer 2 solution based on zk-sharding, enhancing transaction efficiency and scalability

🔧 Installation

1. Clone the Repository:

   git clone https://github.com/NilFoundation/nil-hardhat-example.git
   cd nil-hardhat-example
   

2. Install Dependencies:

   npm install
   

⚙️ Configuration

1. Create a .env file in the root directory based on the given .env.example file
2. Update the .env file with the RPC URL. The default value corresponds to a locally running =nil; node
3. If you don't have nil installed, you can download it from the official repository here. Once you have nil, run the following commands to generate a new key and wallet:

   nil keygen new
   nil wallet new
   

4. Update the .env file with the private key and wallet address

🎯 Usage
