#Web3 development involves unique considerations like encryption, multiple chain connections, and scaling. Standalone tools, suites, add-ons and plugins can come in handy when building on #Avalanche or any other network.
Here are the 8 essential tools for #Web3 builders 🧵
1⃣Infura – A combination of blockchain APIs and other developer tools offered with up to 99.9% uptime, categorized according to use cases, with the option of managed infrastructure and multiple target EVM-compatible chains.
2⃣Truffle - A JavaScript framework that lets you create scripts for automating building processes, work end-to-end without using the CLI and customize test environments to emulate any target production environment.
3⃣Hardhat – Another toolset with a local #Ethereum network node and VS Code extension capabilities. Hardhat differentiates itself with a more prominent feature called Hardhat runner for automating recurring tasks.
4⃣Substrate – A Parity-created framework that addresses communication between disparate blockchains, supports the Proof-of-Authority consensus mechanism, integration of mobile and IoT devices and offers Rust-based and JavaScript-based implementation.
5⃣WatchData – A tool that supports real-time integration of blockchain data. WatchData converts raw or unstructured data into more comprehensible data sets with maximum accuracy to be used by your dApp or its complementary services.
6⃣Remix – A browser-based Solidity IDE with built-in static analysis, the ability to set up a local chain, compile, test and deploy smart contracts. Remix comes with many project templates to help non-experts get started quickly, and several plugins for advanced actions.
7⃣Foundry – A portable and modular Web3 development toolkit with a local node, fuzz testing and plenty of other features for building EVM-compatible dApps. Foundry’s Cast focuses on sending transactions, retrieving blockchain data and interacting with #EVM smart contracts.
8⃣OpenZeppelin Contracts Wizard - This tool offers an interactive approach to back-end coding, allowing you to check functionality boxes and watch as it generates the Solidity code for various ERC token standards like ERC-20, ERC-1155 and ERC-721.
#SparqNet is empowering the next generation of #Web3 builders using #Avalanche subnets! We share insightful blockchain content every week, so don't forget to give us a across socials ⚡️
Exciting news for all #Avalanche builders! We'll be launching our highly anticipated #testnet very soon. This is a major milestone in our journey to provide a cutting-edge infrastructure to deploy #Subnets capable of reaching 400k TPS in a language-agnostic meta-network ⚡️
The testnet will allow participants and co-builders to explore and interact with some of the basic key features of the #SparqNet framework.
Our goal is to provide developers from different backgrounds with the initial tools of our SDK to create without limits during this period.
We strongly encourage all builders and community members from #Avalanche to participate in this significant stage and provide feedback on their experience while testing #SparqNet. This input is invaluable in helping us improve and build a better product 🏗️
