Under the hood
Basic Sample Hardhat Project
This project demonstrates a basic Hardhat use case. It comes with a sample
contract, a test for that contract, a sample script that deploys that contract,
and an example of a task implementation, which simply lists the available
accounts.
Try running some of the following tasks:
npx hardhat accounts
npx hardhat compile
npx hardhat clean
npx hardhat test
npx hardhat node
node scripts/sample-script.js
npx hardhat help
Unlike jest, tests for Hardhat are located in the /test
folder and use
mocha/chai.
For more on Hardhat, see the
official documentation.
Next.js
This is a Next.js project bootstrapped with
create-next-app
.
You can start editing the page by modifying pages/index.tsx
. The page
auto-updates as you edit the file.
API routes can be accessed on
http://localhost:3000/api/hello. This
endpoint can be edited in pages/api/hello.ts
.
The pages/api
directory is mapped to /api/*
. Files in this directory are
treated as API routes instead
of React pages.
To learn more about Next.js, take a look at the following resources:
- Next.js Documentation – learn about Next.js
features and API. - Learn Next.js – an interactive Next.js tutorial.
You can check out
the Next.js GitHub repository – your
feedback and contributions are welcome!
