Similar to the architectures of Hardhat, Redspot is built upon Tasks and Plugins.

Multi Languages Support

Redspot currently supports compilation of Ink! and will support Ask! in the future.

Tasks

Every time you run Redspot from the terminal, you are running tasks. For example, executing the npx redspot compile command is to run the compilation task. To view the tasks currently available in the project, run the npx redspot command. You can view the help information of any task by running npx redspot help [task].

Plugins

Redspot installs some plug-ins by default. As a developer, you're flexible to install any plugins, write new plugins and override existing plugins.

More information

Redspot developed from a hardhat fork based on the MIT protocol, and removed parts related to Ethereum on its basis, and added functions related to Substrate and pallet-contracts modules. In the near future, Redspot will build more functions based on the core of hardhat.
