Switching from mainstream tools is not always easy.

Moving out from Typescript and hardhat to only use Golang, geth and solc to develop and test contracts because Go provides better tools for Dexes use cases (and to build integration toolkits and other utilties).

After spending a few hours to learning about geth and clef (why not? let's learn!) and configuring Go tests to automatically start a local clef daemon and a geth node in dev mode which uses clef, here is the result:

INFO [02-28|18:09:33.554] Using external signer
Fatal: Flags --dev, --signer can't be used at the same time

Going back to geth built-in account management for the tests 🫠

Interesting shift to Go and geth! The dev vs signer flag conflict is a common gotcha. Might look into using a local keystore or environment variables for account management as an alternative. Happy coding!
