Development Network
Build on Arcology
The Arcology devnet is provided as a docker container image. It is the simplest method to establish a fully operational local development network. Once the testnet is up and running, you can commence interaction with it using the standard Ethereum JSON-RPC API.
It allows developers to quickly onboard by creating new blockchain accounts and test smart contracts on the latest builds. Since Arcology is fully compatible with Ethereum, you can deploy smart contracts, send in transactions, and check the execution using standard Ethereum tools.
The Devnet IS NOT designed for performance benchmarking purposes.
