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

Is there a way to compile Solidity to bytecode without wrapping it in a contract? Like, literally compile `5 + 5`, to be executed on top of an EVM VM?

I'm eth newbie..just learning

I know huff actually, but I want I write solidity!

I don't think Solidity has any notion of code outside of the context of a contract (except for libraries and interfaces).

guess the benefit of high level lang is simple code writing, but what’s the benefit of not wrapping in contract? Overhead of the code that gets deployed? 
Can’t think of any way without directly writing the bytecode - done this demo
