Aztec.nr

Aztec.nr is the smart contract development framework for Aztec. It is a set of utilities that help you write Noir programs to deploy on the Aztec network.

Contract Development

Prerequisites

• Install Aztec Sandbox and tooling
• Install the Noir LSP for your editor.

Flow

1. Write your contract and specify your contract dependencies. Every contract written for Aztec will have aztec-nr as a dependency. Add it to your Nargo.toml with

# Nargo.toml
[dependencies]
aztec = { git="https://github.com/AztecProtocol/aztec-packages/", tag="v1.2.0", directory="noir-projects/aztec-nr/aztec" }

2. Write your contracts.
3. Profile the private functions in your contract to get a sense of how long generating client side proofs will take
4. Write unit tests using the TXE and end-to-end tests with typescript
5. Compile your contract
6. Deploy your contract with Aztec.js
