Welcome to your first Azle project! This example project will help you to deploy your first canister (application) to the Internet Computer (IC) decentralized cloud. It is a simple getter/setter canister.
dfx
is the tool you will use to interact with the IC locally and on mainnet. If you don't already have it installed:
npm run dfx_install
Next you will want to start a replica, which is a local instance of the IC that you can deploy your canisters to:
npm run replica_start
If you ever want to stop the replica:
npm run replica_stop
Now you can deploy your canister locally:
npm install
npm run canister_deploy_local
To call the methods on your canister:
npm run canister_call_get_message
npm run canister_call_set_message
If you run the above commands and then call npm run canister_call_get_message
you should see:
("Hello world!")
Assuming you have created a cycles wallet and funded it with cycles, you can deploy to mainnet like this:
npm run canister_deploy_mainnet
To run the frontend locally
npm run start
