A place for developers to talk about building on Farcaster.

/dev

for someone who's just starting with solidity, what would be the better option?

foundry or hardhat

(written smart contracts before, lost touch and starting from scratch)

Start with foundry right away. To me just writing test in Solidity is a game changer.

Faster building, easy way to manipulate the vm to test. It is more intuitive to test on Foundry since you are testing as if the process passes/rejects the transaction. Also the framework files are very minimal.

is that the only difference? or does foundry have something else "better" than Hardhat?
