A minimal types-first boilerplate for Ethereum frontend dapp development.
Includes:
-
Next.js because it does automatic code-splitting and has a very minimal API. Much more performant and minimal than Create-React-App.
-
Typescript because you don't want to guess what type everything is.
-
ESLint to catch dangerous patterns that can cause bugs. The official recommended Typescript linting config is also included.
-
Prettier to enforce consistent formatting. This is setup to work with ESLint from the official Prettier documentation instructions.
-
Ethers.js has the best abstraction for working with the Ethereum blockchain so far.
-
Typechain so that all your contract instances have types. This means you always know what methods exist, what arguments they take, and also what the return type is.
Click "Use this template" at the top of this page, or click here to create your repo and clone locally.
- Run
yarn
to install dependencies. - Run
yarn typechain
to generate the types for your contracts. - Run
yarn dev
to begin developing.
To add a contract and have Typechain generate types for it, simply drop the contract's ABI (as a JSON file) into the contracts
directory. Types are then generated by running yarn typechain
and output to the contracts/types
directory.
Make an issue to talk about what you'd like to see!
