A place for talking about the Ethereum Virtual Machine on Farcaster.

Now that Truffle has announced its sunset, we are thinking about where to migrate to. I am curious to know if developers prefer Foundry or Hardhat and why?

I'm eth newbie..just learning

Awesome, thanks a lot for sharing your impressions 🫡

If you have a lot of legacy JS to maintain, it's probably easier with Hardhat, but I strongly prefer Foundry. I like Foundry tooling but the big distinction is that I write more, better tests in Foundry and run them more often.  

They are also not mutually exclusive: it's possible to use both in the same project.

Bite the bullet and migrate to foundry now, hh would be a half measure

i sell tickets offchain. sometimes still build onchain. prev. basement.

What exactly do you experienced being faster in foundry in comparison to hardhat? Compile time ? Development speed ?

love foundry. it’s a lot faster.

I think it’s a bit harder to migrate to vs hardhat, but worth it imo

foundry. so much faster to build and run tests. couldn’t imagine going back to hardhat now

Patrick Collins has great foundry tutorials
