Build your own Decentralized Exchange! Use the xy=k AMM curve on Ethereum using Solidity, ethers.js, Next.js, and Web3Modal

DeFi-Exchange

Now its time for you to launch a DeFi Exchange for your Crypto Dev tokens


Requirements

  • Build an exhange with only one asset pair (Eth <> Crypto Dev)
  • Your Decentralized Exchange should take a fees of 1% on swaps
  • When user adds liquidity, they should be given Crypto Dev LP tokens (Liquidity Provider tokens)
  • CD LP tokens should be given propotional to the Ether user is willing to add to the liquidity

Lets start building πŸš€


Prerequisites


Smart Contract

To build the smart contract we would be using Hardhat.
Hardhat is an Ethereum development environment and framework designed for full stack development in Solidity. In simple words you can write your smart contract, deploy them, run tests, and debug your code.

  • To setup a Hardhat project, Open up a terminal and execute these commands
  mkdir hardhat-tutorial
  cd hardhat-tutorial
  npm init --yes
  npm install --save-dev hardhat
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
  • In the same directory where you installed Hardhat run:
  npx hardhat
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
  • Select Create a basic sample project
  • Press enter for the already specified Hardhat Project root
  • Press enter for the question on if you want to add a .gitignore
  • Press enter for Do you want to install this sample project's dependencies with npm (@nomiclabs/hardhat-waffle ethereum-waffle chai @nomiclabs/hardhat-ethers ethers)?

    • Now you have a hardhat project ready to go!
    • If you are not on mac, please do this extra step and install these libraries as well :)
  npm install --save-dev @nomiclabs/hardhat-waffle ethereum-waffle chai @nomiclabs/hardhat-ethers ethers
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
  npm install @openzeppelin/contracts
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
  • Create a new file inside the contracts directory called Exchange.sol. In this tutorial we would cover each part of the contract seperately

    • First lets start by importing ERC20.sol
    • We imported ERC20.sol because our Exchange needs to mint and create Crypto Dev LP tokens thats why it needs to inherit ERC20.sol
      // SPDX-License-Identifier: MIT
      pragma solidity ^0.8.4;
    
      import "@openzeppelin/contracts/token/ERC20/ERC20.sol";
    
      contract Exchange is ERC20 {
      }
    
    • Now lets create a constructor for our contract
    • It takes the address of the _CryptoDevToken that you deployed in the ICO tutorial as an input param
    • It then checks if the address is a null address
    • After all the checks, it assigns the value to the input param to the cryptoDevTokenAddress variable
    • Constructor also sets the name and symbol for our Crypto Dev LP token
      // SPDX-License-Identifier: MIT
      pragma solidity ^0.8.4;
    
      import "@openzeppelin/contracts/token/ERC20/ERC20.sol";
    
      contract Exchange is ERC20 {
    
          address public cryptoDevTokenAddress;
    
          // Exchange is inheriting ERC20, becase our exchange would keep track of Crypto Dev LP tokens
          constructor(address _CryptoDevtoken) ERC20("CryptoDev LP Token", "CDLP") {
              require(_CryptoDevtoken != address(0), "Token address passed is a null address");
              cryptoDevTokenAddress = _CryptoDevtoken;
          }
      }
    
    • Time to create a function to get reserves of the Eth and Crypto Dev tokens held by the contract.
    • Eth reserve as we all know would be equal to the balance of the contract and can be found using address(this).balance so lets just create a function only for getting reserves of the Crypto Dev tokens
    • We know that the Crypto Dev Token contract that we deployed is an ERC20
    • So we can just call the balanceOf to check the balance of CryptoDev Tokens that the contract address holds
      /**
      * @dev Returns the amount of `Crypto Dev Tokens` held by the contract
      */
      function getReserve() public view returns (uint) {
          return ERC20(cryptoDevTokenAddress).balanceOf(address(this));
      }
    
    • Time to create an addLiquidity function which would add liquidity in the form of Ether and Crypto Dev tokens to our contract
    • If cryptoDevTokenReserve is zero it means that it is the first time someone is adding Crypto Dev tokens and Ether to the contract
    • When the user is adding initial liquidity we dont have to maintain any ratio because we dont have any liquidity. So we accept any amount of tokens that user has sent with the initial call
    • If cryptoDevTokenReserve is not zero, then we have to make sure that when someone adds the liquidity it doesnt impact the price which the market currently has
    • To ensure this, we maintain a ratio which has to remain constant
    • Ratio is (cryptoDevTokenAmount user can add/cryptoDevTokenReserve in the contract) = (Eth Sent by the user/Eth Reserve in the contract)
    • This ratio decides how much Crypto Dev tokens user can supply given a certain amount of Eth
    • When user adds liquidity, we need to provide him with some LP tokens because we need to keep track of the amount of liquiidty he has supplied to the contract
    • The amount of LP tokens that get minted to the user are propotional to the Eth supplied by the user
    • In the inital liquidity case, when there is no liquidity: The amount of LP tokens that would be minted to the user is equal to the Eth balance of the contract (because balance is equal to the Eth sent by the user in the addLiquidity call)
    • When there is already liquidity in the contract, the amount of LP tokens that get minted is based on a ratio.
    • The ratio is (LP tokens to be sent to the user (liquidity) / totalSupply of LP tokens in contract) = (Eth sent by the user) / (Eth reserve in the contract)
    /**
    * @dev Adds liquidity to the exchange.
    */
    function addLiquidity(uint _amount) public payable returns (uint) {
        uint liquidity;
        uint ethBalance = address(this).balance;
        uint cryptoDevTokenReserve = getReserve();
        ERC20 cryptoDevToken = ERC20(cryptoDevTokenAddress);
        /*
            If the reserve is empty, intake any user supplied value for
            `Ether` and `Crypto Dev` tokens because there is no ratio currently
        */
        if(cryptoDevTokenReserve == 0) {
            // Transfer the `cryptoDevToken` from the user's account to the contract
            cryptoDevToken.transferFrom(msg.sender, address(this), _amount);
            // Take the current ethBalance and mint `ethBalance` amount of LP tokens to the user.
            // `liquidity` provided is equal to `ethBalance` because this is the first time user
            // is adding `Eth` to the contract, so whatever `Eth` contract has is equal to the one supplied
            // by the user in the current `addLiquidity` call
            // `liquidity` tokens that need to be minted to the user on `addLiquidity` call should always be proportional
            // to the Eth specified by the user
            liquidity = ethBalance;
            _mint(msg.sender, liquidity);
            // _mint is ERC20.sol smart contract function to mint ERC20 tokens
        } else {
            /*
                If the reserve is not empty, intake any user supplied value for
                `Ether` and determine according to the ratio how many `Crypto Dev` tokens
                need to be supplied to prevent any large price impacts because of the additional
                liquidity
            */
            // EthReserve should be the current ethBalance subtracted by the value of ether sent by the user
            // in the current `addLiquidity` call
            uint ethReserve =  ethBalance - msg.value;
            // Ratio should always be maintained so that there are no major price impacts when adding liquidity
            // Ratio here is -> (cryptoDevTokenAmount user can add/cryptoDevTokenReserve in the contract) = (Eth Sent by the user/Eth Reserve in the contract);
            // So doing some maths, (cryptoDevTokenAmount user can add) = (Eth Sent by the user * cryptoDevTokenReserve /Eth Reserve);
            uint cryptoDevTokenAmount = (msg.value * cryptoDevTokenReserve)/(ethReserve);
            require(_amount >= cryptoDevTokenAmount, "Amount of tokens sent is less than the minimum tokens required");
            // transfer only (cryptoDevTokenAmount user can add) amount of `Crypto Dev tokens` from users account
            // to the contract
            cryptoDevToken.transferFrom(msg.sender, address(this), cryptoDevTokenAmount);
            // The amount of LP tokens that would be sent to the user should be propotional to the liquidity of
            // ether added by the user
            // Ratio here to be maintained is ->
            // (LP tokens to be sent to the user (liquidity)/ totalSupply of LP tokens in contract) = (Eth sent by the user)/(Eth reserve in the contract)
            // by some maths -> liquidity =  (totalSupply of LP tokens in contract * (Eth sent by the user))/(Eth reserve in the contract)
            liquidity = (totalSupply() * msg.value)/ ethReserve;
            _mint(msg.sender, liquidity);
        }
         return liquidity;
    }
    
    • Now lets create a function for removing liquidity from the contract.
    • The amount of ether that would be sent back to the user would be based on a ratio
    • Ratio is (Eth sent back to the user) / (current Eth reserve) = (amount of LP tokens that user wants to withdraw) / (total supply of LP tokens)
    • The amount of Crypto Dev tokens that would be sent back to the user would also be based on a ratio
    • Ratio is (Crypto Dev sent back to the user) / (current Crypto Dev token reserve) = (amount of LP tokens that user wants to withdraw) / (total supply of LP tokens)
    • The amount of LP tokens that user would use to remove liquidity would be burnt
      /** 
      * @dev Returns the amount Eth/Crypto Dev tokens that would be returned to the user
      * in the swap
      */
      function removeLiquidity(uint _amount) public returns (uint , uint) {
          require(_amount > 0, "_amount should be greater than zero");
          uint ethReserve = address(this).balance;
          uint _totalSupply = totalSupply();
          // The amount of Eth that would be sent back to the user is based
          // on a ratio
          // Ratio is -> (Eth sent back to the user) / (current Eth reserve)
          // = (amount of LP tokens that user wants to withdraw) / (total supply of LP tokens)
          // Then by some maths -> (Eth sent back to the user)
          // = (current Eth reserve * amount of LP tokens that user wants to withdraw) / (total supply of LP tokens)
          uint ethAmount = (ethReserve * _amount)/ _totalSupply;
          // The amount of Crypto Dev token that would be sent back to the user is based
          // on a ratio
          // Ratio is -> (Crypto Dev sent back to the user) / (current Crypto Dev token reserve)
          // = (amount of LP tokens that user wants to withdraw) / (total supply of LP tokens)
          // Then by some maths -> (Crypto Dev sent back to the user)
          // = (current Crypto Dev token reserve * amount of LP tokens that user wants to withdraw) / (total supply of LP tokens)
          uint cryptoDevTokenAmount = (getReserve() * _amount)/ _totalSupply;
          // Burn the sent LP tokens from the user's wallet because they are already sent to
          // remove liquidity
          _burn(msg.sender, _amount);
          // Transfer `ethAmount` of Eth from user's wallet to the contract
          payable(msg.sender).transfer(ethAmount);
          // Transfer `cryptoDevTokenAmount` of Crypto Dev tokens from the user's wallet to the contract
          ERC20(cryptoDevTokenAddress).transfer(msg.sender, cryptoDevTokenAmount);
          return (ethAmount, cryptoDevTokenAmount);
      }
    
    • Next lets implement the swap functionality
    • Swap would go two ways. One way would be Eth to Crypto Dev tokens and other would be Crypto Dev to Eth
    • Its important for us to determine: Given x amount of Eth/Crypto Dev token sent by the user, how many Eth/Crypto Dev tokens would he receive from the swap?
    • So let's create a function which calculates this:

      • We will charge 1%. This means the amount of input tokens with fees would equal Input amount with fees = (input amount - (1*(input amount)/100)) = ((input amount)*99)/100
      • We need to follow the concept of XY = K curve
      • We need to make sure (x + Ξ”x) * (y - Ξ”y) = x * y, so the final formula is Ξ”y = (y * Ξ”x) / (x + Ξ”x);
      • Ξ”y in our case is tokens to be received, Ξ”x = ((input amount)*99)/100, x = Input Reserve, y = Output Reserve
      • Input Reserve and Ouput Reserve would depend on which swap we are implementing. Eth to Crypto Dev token or vice versa
      /**
      * @dev Returns the amount Eth/Crypto Dev tokens that would be returned to the user
      * in the swap
      */
      function getAmountOfTokens(
          uint256 inputAmount,
          uint256 inputReserve,
          uint256 outputReserve
      ) public pure returns (uint256) {
          require(inputReserve > 0 && outputReserve > 0, "invalid reserves");
          // We are charging a fee of `1%`
          // Input amount with fee = (input amount - (1*(input amount)/100)) = ((input amount)*99)/100
          uint256 inputAmountWithFee = inputAmount * 99;
          // Because we need to follow the concept of `XY = K` curve
          // We need to make sure (x + Ξ”x) * (y - Ξ”y) = x * y
          // So the final formula is Ξ”y = (y * Ξ”x) / (x + Ξ”x)
          // Ξ”y in our case is `tokens to be received`
          // Ξ”x = ((input amount)*99)/100, x = inputReserve, y = outputReserve
          // So by putting the values in the formulae you can get the numerator and denominator
          uint256 numerator = inputAmountWithFee * outputReserve;
          uint256 denominator = (inputReserve * 100) + inputAmountWithFee;
          return numerator / denominator;
      }
      
      • Now lets implement a function to swap Ether for Crypto Dev tokens
      /** 
      * @dev Swaps Eth for CryptoDev Tokens
      */
      function ethToCryptoDevToken(uint _minTokens) public payable {
          uint256 tokenReserve = getReserve();
          // call the `getAmountOfTokens` to get the amount of Crypto Dev tokens
          // that would be returned to the user after the swap
          // Notice that the `inputReserve` we are sending is equal to  
          // `address(this).balance - msg.value` instead of just `address(this).balance`
          // because `address(this).balance` already contains the `msg.value` user has sent in the given call
          // so we need to subtract it to get the actual input reserve
          uint256 tokensBought = getAmountOfTokens(
              msg.value,
              address(this).balance - msg.value,
              tokenReserve
          );
      
          require(tokensBought >= _minTokens, "insufficient output amount");
          // Transfer the `Crypto Dev` tokens to the user
          ERC20(cryptoDevTokenAddress).transfer(msg.sender, tokensBought);
      }
      
      • Now lets implement a function to swap Crypto Dev tokens to Ether
      /** 
      * @dev Swaps CryptoDev Tokens for Eth
      */
      function cryptoDevTokenToEth(uint _tokensSold, uint _minEth) public {
          uint256 tokenReserve = getReserve();
          // call the `getAmountOfTokens` to get the amount of Eth
          // that would be returned to the user after the swap
          uint256 ethBought = getAmountOfTokens(
              _tokensSold,
              tokenReserve,
              address(this).balance
          );
          require(ethBought >= _minEth, "insufficient output amount");
          // Transfer `Crypto Dev` tokens from the user's address to the contract
          ERC20(cryptoDevTokenAddress).transferFrom(
              msg.sender,
              address(this),
              _tokensSold
          );
          // send the `ethBought` to the user from the contract
          payable(msg.sender).transfer(ethBought);
      }

  • Now we would install dotenv package to be able to import the env file and use it in our config. Open up a terminal pointing at hardhat-tutorial directory and execute this command
  npm install dotenv
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
  • Now create a .env file in the hardhat-tutorial folder and add the following lines, use the instructions in the comments to get your Alchemy API Key URL and Rinkeby Private Key. Make sure that the account from which you get your Rinkeby private key is funded with Rinkeby Ether.
  // Go to https://www.alchemyapi.io, sign up, create
  // a new App in its dashboard and select the network as Rinkeby, and replace "add-the-alchemy-key-url-here" with its key url
  ALCHEMY_API_KEY_URL="add-the-alchemy-key-url-here"

  // Replace this private key with your RINKEBY account private key
  // To export your private key from Metamask, open Metamask and
  // go to Account Details > Export Private Key
  // Be aware of NEVER putting real Ether into testing accounts
  RINKEBY_PRIVATE_KEY="add-the-rinkeby-private-key-here"
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
  • Lets also create a constants folder to keep track of any constants we have. Under the hardhat-tutorial folder create a new folder named constants and under the constants folder create a new file index.js

  • Inside the index.js file add the following lines of code. Remember to replace ADDRESS-OF-CRYPTO-DEV-TOKEN with the contract address of the Crypto Dev token contract that you deployed in the ICO tutorial

  const CRYPTO_DEV_TOKEN_CONTRACT_ADDRESS = "ADDRESS-OF-CRYPTO-DEV-TOKEN";

  module.exports = { CRYPTO_DEV_TOKEN_CONTRACT_ADDRESS };
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
  • Lets deploy the contract to rinkeby network. Create a new file named deploy.js under the scripts folder

  • Now we would write some code to deploy the contract in deploy.js file.

  const { ethers } = require("hardhat");
  require("dotenv").config({ path: ".env" });
  const { CRYPTO_DEV_TOKEN_CONTRACT_ADDRESS } = require("../constants");

  async function main() {
    const cryptoDevTokenAddress = CRYPTO_DEV_TOKEN_CONTRACT_ADDRESS;
    /*
    A ContractFactory in ethers.js is an abstraction used to deploy new smart contracts,
    so exchangeContract here is a factory for instances of our Exchange contract.
    */
    const exchangeContract = await ethers.getContractFactory("Exchange");

    // here we deploy the contract
    const deployedExchangeContract = await exchangeContract.deploy(
      cryptoDevTokenAddress
    );
    await deployedExchangeContract.deployed();

    // print the address of the deployed contract
    console.log("Exchange Contract Address:", deployedExchangeContract.address);
  }

  // Call the main function and catch if there is any error
  main()
    .then(() => process.exit(0))
    .catch((error) => {
      console.error(error);
      process.exit(1);
    });
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
  • Now open the hardhat.config.js file, we would add the rinkeby network here so that we can deploy our contract to rinkeby. Replace all the lines in the hardhart.config.js file with the given below lines
  require("@nomiclabs/hardhat-waffle");
  require("dotenv").config({ path: ".env" });

  const ALCHEMY_API_KEY_URL = process.env.ALCHEMY_API_KEY_URL;

  const RINKEBY_PRIVATE_KEY = process.env.RINKEBY_PRIVATE_KEY;

  module.exports = {
    solidity: "0.8.4",
    networks: {
      rinkeby: {
        url: ALCHEMY_API_KEY_URL,
        accounts: [RINKEBY_PRIVATE_KEY],
      },
    },
  };
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
  • Compile the contract, open up a terminal pointing at hardhat-tutorial directory and execute this command
  npx hardhat compile
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
  • To deploy, open up a terminal pointing athardhat-tutorial directory and execute this command
   npx hardhat run scripts/deploy.js --network rinkeby
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
  • Save the Exchange Contract Address that was printed on your terminal in your notepad, you would need it further down in the tutorial.

Website

  • To develop the website we would be using React and Next Js. React is a javascript framework which is used to make websites and Next Js is built on top of React.
  • First, You would need to create a new next app. Your folder structure should look something like
     - DeFi-Exchange
         - hardhat-tutorial
         - my-app
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
  • To create this my-app, in the terminal point to DeFi-Exchange folder and type
    npx create-next-app@latest
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

and press enter for all the questions

  • Now to run the app, execute these commands in the terminal
  cd my-app
  npm run dev
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
  • Now go to http://localhost:3000, your app should be running 🀘

  • Now lets install Web3Modal library(https://github.com/Web3Modal/web3modal). Web3Modal is an easy-to-use library to help developers add support for multiple providers in their apps with a simple customizable configuration. By default Web3Modal Library supports injected providers like (Metamask, Dapper, Gnosis Safe, Frame, Web3 Browsers, etc), You can also easily configure the library to support Portis, Fortmatic, Squarelink, Torus, Authereum, D'CENT Wallet and Arkane.
    Open up a terminal pointing atmy-app directory and execute this command

    npm install web3modal
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
  • In the same terminal also install ethers.js
  npm i ethers
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
  • In your public folder, download this image and rename it to cryptodev.svg.

  • Now go to styles folder and replace all the contents of Home.modules.css file with the following code, this would add some styling to your dapp:

  .main {
    min-height: 90vh;
    display: flex;
    flex-direction: row;

  • Now lets create a constants folder to keep track of any constants we might have. Create a constants folder under my-app folder and inside the constants folder create a file names index.js
  • Paste the following code.

    • Replace ABI-CRYPTO-DEV-TOKEN-CONTRACT with the abi of the Crypto Dev token contract that you deployed in the ICO tutorial.
    • Replace ADDRESS-OF-CRYPTO-DEV-TOKEN-CONTRACT with the address of the Crypto Dev token contract that you deployed in the ICO tutorial
    • Replace ABI-EXCHANGE-CONTRACT with the abi of the Exchange Contract. To get the abi for your contract, go to your hardhat-tutorial/artifacts/contracts/Exchange.sol folder and from your Exchange.json file get the array marked under the "abi" key.
    • Replace ADDRESS-EXCHANGE-CONTRACT with the address of the exchange contract that you deployed above and saved to your notepad
    export const TOKEN_CONTRACT_ABI = "ABI-CRYPTO-DEV-TOKEN-CONTRACT";
    export const TOKEN_CONTRACT_ADDRESS =
      "ADDRESS-OF-CRYPTO-DEV-TOKEN-CONTRACT";
    export const EXCHANGE_CONTRACT_ABI = "ABI-EXCHANGE-CONTRACT";
    export const EXCHANGE_CONTRACT_ADDRESS = "ADDRESS-EXCHANGE-CONTRACT";
    
  • Now we would create some utility files which would help us to better interact with the contract. Create a utils folder inside the my-app folder and inside the folder create 4 files: addLiquidity.js, removeLiquidity.js, getAmounts.js, and swap.js

  • Lets start by writing some code in getAmounts.js. This file is used to retrieve balances and reserves for assets

  import { Contract } from "ethers";

  • Lets now write some code for addLiquidity.js.

    • addLiquidity.js has two functions addLiquidity and calculateCD
    • addLiquidity is used to call the addLiquidity function in the contract to add liquidity
    • It also gets the Crypto Dev tokens approved for the contract by the user. The reason why Crypto Dev tokens need approval is because they are an ERC20 token. For the contract to withdraw an ERC20 from a user's account, it needs the approval from the user's account
    • calculateCD tells you for a given amount of Eth, how many Crypto Dev tokens can be added to the liquidity
    • We calculate this by maintaining a ratio. The ratio we follow is (amount of Crypto Dev tokens to be added) / (Crypto Dev tokens balance) = (Eth that would be added) / (Eth reserve in the contract)
    • So by maths we get (amount of Crypto Dev tokens to be added) = (Eth that would be added * Crypto Dev tokens balance) / (Eth reserve in the contract)
    • The ratio is needed so that adding liquidity doesn't largely impact the price
    • Note tx.wait() means we are waiting for the transaction to get mined
    import { Contract, utils } from "ethers";
    import {
      EXCHANGE_CONTRACT_ABI,
      EXCHANGE_CONTRACT_ADDRESS,
      TOKEN_CONTRACT_ABI,

     * constant
     */
    export const addLiquidity = async (
      signer,

  • Now add some code to removeLiquidity.js

    • We have two functions here: One is removeLiquidity and the other is getTokensAfterRemove
    • removeLiquidity calls the removeLiquidity function from the contract, to remove the amount of LP tokens specified by the user
    • getTokensAfterRemove calulates the amount of Ether and CD tokens that would be sent back to the user after he removes a certain amount of LP tokens from the pool
    • The amount of Eth that would be sent back to the user after he withdraws the LP token is calculated based on a ratio,
    • Ratio is -> (amount of Eth that would be sent back to the user / Eth reserve) = (LP tokens withdrawn) / (total supply of LP tokens)
    • By some maths we get -> (amount of Eth that would be sent back to the user) = (Eth Reserve * LP tokens withdrawn) / (total supply of LP tokens)
    • Similarly we also maintain a ratio for the CD tokens, so here in our case
    • Ratio is -> (amount of CD tokens sent back to the user / CD Token reserve) = (LP tokens withdrawn) / (total supply of LP tokens)
    • Then (amount of CD tokens sent back to the user) = (CD token reserve * LP tokens withdrawn) / (total supply of LP tokens)

  • Now it's time to write code for swap.js our last utils file

    • It has two functions getAmountOfTokenReceivedFromSwap and swapTokens
    • swapTokens swaps certain amount of Eth/Crypto Dev tokens with Crypto Dev/Eth tokens
    • If Eth has been selected by the user from the UI, it means that the user has Eth and he wants to swap it for a certain amount of Crypto Dev tokens
    • In this case we call the ethToCryptoDevToken function. Note that Eth is sent as a value in the function because the user is paying this Eth to the contract. Eth sent is not an input param value in this case
    • On the other hand, if Eth is not selected this means that the user wants to swap Crypto Dev tokens for Eth
    • Here we call the cryptoDevTokenToEth
    • getAmountOfTokensReceivedFromSwap is a function which calculates, given a certain amount of Eth/Crypto Dev tokens, how many Eth/Crypto Dev tokens would be sent back to the user
    • If Eth is selected it calls the getAmountOfTokens from the contract which takes in an input reserve and an output reserve. Here, input reserve would be the Eth balance of the contract and output reserve would be the Crypto Dev token reserve. Opposite would be true, if Eth is not selected
