L2 Rollup

Scaling Ethereum

Arcology utilizes the bridge components from Optimism to establish communication with the Ethereum Layer 1. Both the Optimism bridge components and a local Ethereum L1 node are included into this package. This setup ensures that the Arcology parallel execution layer utilizes both the local Ethereum L1 node and the local Optimism bridge for seamless integration.

Using Docker Image

This is the simplest method to establish a fully operational local development network. The docker images are available on Docker Hub. It allows developers to quickly onboard by creating new blockchain accounts and test smart contracts on the latest builds.

Alternatively, you may also use the installation script to install a development network on your local machine. This is a trickier option, please check this document.
