CrossFi Workshop #1

Smart Contracts on CrossFi Chain

Welcome participants to the workshop and introduce the objective: to guide them through deploying a smart contract on the CrossFi Chain.
Emphasize that this guide provides a foundational understanding of smart contract deployment, which participants can apply to more complex projects in the future.
Highlight the requirements for the workshop: Node.js, basic Solidity understanding, and access to Testnet XFI coins (faucet coming soon).
Provide an overview of the tools and technologies used, including Foundry for testing and deployment.

Explain the importance of Foundry in the deployment process and its role in providing a seamless development experience.
Guide participants through creating a project directory and initializing npm using the provided commands.
Demonstrate the installation of Foundry using the curl command and running foundryup to set up the environment.
Address potential MacOS-specific issues related to library loading and provide a resolution using Homebrew.

Instruct participants to create a contract file using the forge init command and open it in their code editor.
Review the Counter.sol smart contract, highlighting its components such as the number variable, setNumber and increment functions.
Explain the importance of compiling the contract to verify its logic and introduce the forge build command for this purpose.

Provide an overview of the provided test file Counter.t.sol and its purpose in ensuring the functionality of the smart contract.
Guide participants through executing the test code using the forge test command and interpreting the test results.
Emphasize the significance of testing in smart contract development and ensuring the contract behaves as expected.

Explain the deployment process using forge create command, requiring a private key connected to a wallet with Testnet XFI tokens.
Provide the necessary parameters including the RPC URL and private key, demonstrating how to deploy the contract.
Show participants how to verify the deployment by checking the contract address in the terminal and using the CrossFi Testnet Block Explorer.

Conclude the workshop by demonstrating contract interaction using Foundry commands.
Guide participants through setting the number, reading the current value, and incrementing the number using cast send and cast call commands.
Reinforce the completion of the deployment process and encourage participants to explore further contract functionalities independently.

Summarize the key steps covered in the workshop, including project setup, contract creation, testing, deployment, and interaction.
Reiterate the applicability of these steps to future CrossFi projects and the importance of understanding smart contract deployment fundamentals.
Thank participants for their participation and encourage them to reach out with any questions or feedback.
Provide resources for further learning and exploration, such as documentation and community channels.
