graph-node VS hardhat

A subgraph according to The Graph (which is a decentralized protocol for indexing and querying blockchain data) is a custom API built on blockchain data. They are queried using the GraphQL query language and are deployed to a Graph Node using the Graph CLI.

Event is a log entity which EVM smart contracts can emit during transaction execution. Events are very good at signalling that an some action has taken place on-chain. Applications can subscribe and listen to events to trigger some off-chain logic or they can index, transform and store events in some off-chain storage (look at The Graph protocol or Ethereum ETL).

https://github.com/scaffold-eth/scaffold-eth-2 this repo comes with wagmi and hard hat preconfigured you can use it as a sample , but if you are large querying data I would advise you the graph https://thegraph.com/

The Graph

There are also decentralized network services like The Graph or Pocket Network that provide decentralized access to Ethereum and other blockchain networks. Note that these services primarily provide APIs for querying blockchain data, and may not provide full functionality for sending transactions or executing smart contracts like a full Ethereum node or services like Infura and Alchemy.

For read-only the way to use The Graph

See it for yourself.

thegraph.com is the only site operated by The Graph Foundation, and is the centrepiece for all activity on the protocol. Can a website/web dApp be hacked? Yes. Has it been hacked in the past two years since it launched? No.

Check out TheGraph, most of DEX has a subgraph indexing data

Hardhat is an Ethereum development framework for creating, testing and deploying smart contracts. It includes a suite of tools that aid in developing smart contracts and managing the complete development process, allowing developers to write scripts, compile, test, and deploy efficiently.

That's it for the first part ! Then we will use Hardhat to deploy our Solidity Contract on the Polygon testnet, and then overload our mintNFT() function with the actual minting. If you want to see the Part 2 quickly, give us some love and we will execute ! ❤️❤️❤️

To keep things simple and visible (in case you cant deploy), we will use Sepolia testnet blockchain and Hardhat as development environment, so to configure hardhat to use sepolia we need to add the following configuration to the hardhat.config.js file:

The documentation has no mention of Trezor wallet support. According to this GitHub issue I could try out this Frame application, but I was wondering if there was a simpler solution that didn't require installing some 3rd party application.

I have two skipped tests because at the time of writing this article events firing doesn't work properly in the latest version. Link to the github issue

Hardhat

Other options include Remix (an IDE), ChainIDE, Anchor (for Solana), Hardhat, and lots of others. Web3 dev environments have come a long way in a short time, and there’s probably something out there for whatever you need.

Hardhat allows developers to build, test, and deploy smart contracts and dApps using a variety of tools and libraries. With over 114K users on GitHub and an active Discord community, Hardhat is a hugely popular framework for dApp developers. Much of its popularity can be attributed to its rich list of features, flexibility and the Hardhat Ethereum Virtual Machine for testing and debugging smart contracts.

The hardhat-ethers plugin adds the ethers.js library to the Hardhat node, making it possible to use its functionalities. It's possible to use it to deploy the contract, but since our goal is to create transactions, we can also add some code to do that as well.

Also learning how to use one of these development environments instead of Remix is necessary: 1. Hardhat: https://hardhat.org 2. Foundry: https://github.com/foundry-rs/foundry
