Hardhat is a development environment to compile, deploy, test, and debug your Ethereum software. It helps developers manage and automate the recurring tasks that are inherent to the process of building smart contracts and dApps, as well as easily introducing more functionality around this workflow. This means compiling, running and testing smart contracts at the very core.
Project Setup
first of all we need to create a directory for our project.in terminal type:
mkdir hardhat
cd hardhat // we changed directory to ‘hardhat’
and install hardhat in this directory:
npm init
npm install –save-dev hardhat
after installation we can run hardhat using npx :
npx hardhat
Note: we run hardhat using npx because of local installation
when you run Hardhat it asks some question something like below:
$ npx hardhat
