Create a new project
To start a new project, you can begin with a blank project or by choosing one of the example projects provided. The selections includes options such as:
For this example, create a new project using the Counter template.
For the rest of the examples, check out the Clarity examples repo.
Starting on the /projects page:
- Click on the New project button.
- In the template section, browse the examples. Look for the Counter template and select it.
Selecting the Counter template immediately takes you to a new project page, as the template will automatically be cloned and displayed.
Here, you can see a single counter.clar contract with the example code already written.
On the right hand side of the interface, you can start editing your smart contracts, which will be validated in real-time.
To add a new contract, you can click on the Create Contract button that sits on the left hand side of the interface above your existing contracts.
With a new project now created, you'll now see it on the /projects page. Here, you can manage all your projects.
Import a project from GitHub
- Click on the Import from GitHub button.
- Enter the GitHub URL of the project you wish to import and click on Clone.
The maximum project size allowed for imports is 50 MB.
Similar to creating a new project manually, cloning will redirect you to your project page where you can view the imported contracts.
