• Setting up a project

Hardhat projects are Node.js projects with the hardhat package installed and a hardhat.config.js file.

To initialize a Node.js project you can use npm or yarn. We recommend using npm 7 or later:

npm init -y

Then you need to install Hardhat:

npm install --save-dev hardhat

If you run npx hardhat now, you will be shown some options to facilitate project creation:

$ npx hardhat

Welcome to Hardhat v2.10.0

? What do you want to do? …
▸ Create a JavaScript project
  Create a TypeScript project
  Create an empty hardhat.config.js
  Quit

If you select Create an empty hardhat.config.js, Hardhat will create a hardhat.config.js like the following:

/** @type import('hardhat/config').HardhatUserConfig */
module.exports = {
  solidity: "0.8.9",
};

And this is enough to run Hardhat using a default project structure.

• Sample Hardhat project

If you select Create a JavaScript project, a simple project creation wizard will ask you some questions. After that, the wizard will create some directories and files and installthe necessary dependencies. The most important of these dependencies is the Hardhat Toolbox, a plugin that bundles all the things you need to start working with Hardhat.

The initialized project has the following structure:

contracts/
scripts/
test/
hardhat.config.js

These are the default paths for a Hardhat project.

• contracts/ is where the source files for your contracts should be.
• test/ is where your tests should go.
• scripts/ is where simple automation scripts go.

If you need to change these paths, take a look at the paths configuration section.

• Testing

When it comes to testing your contracts, the sample project comes with some useful functionality:

• The built-in Hardhat Network as the development network to test on, along with the Hardhat Network Helpers library to manipulate this network.
• Mocha as the test runner, Chai as the assertion library, and the Hardhat Chai Matchers to extend Chai with contracts-related functionality.
• The ethers.js library to interact with the network and with contracts.

As well as other useful plugins. You can learn more about this in the Testing contracts guide.

• External networks

If you need to use an external network, like an Ethereum testnet, mainnet or some other specific node software, you can set it up using the networks configuration entries in the exported object in hardhat.config.js, which is how Hardhat projects manage settings.

You can make use of the --network CLI parameter to quickly change the network.

Take a look at the networks configuration section to learn more about setting up different networks.

• Plugins and dependencies

Most of Hardhat's functionality comes from plugins, so check out the plugins section for the official list and see if there are any ones of interest to you.

To use a plugin, the first step is always to install it using npm or yarn, followed by requiring it in your config file:

require("@nomicfoundation/hardhat-toolbox");

module.exports = {
  solidity: "0.8.9",
};

Plugins are essential to Hardhat projects, so make sure to check out all the available ones and also build your own!

Setting up your editor

Hardhat for Visual Studio Code is the official Hardhat extension that adds advanced support for Solidity to VSCode. If you use Visual Studio Code, give it a try!
