Blockstream on Nostr: Simplicity, the much-anticipated smart contracting language that could revolutionize ...
Simplicity, the much-anticipated smart contracting language that could revolutionize Bitcoin, has just hit a public blockchain:
LiquidNetwork (npub1nyy…7gan) Testnet.
Developers can start building powerful next-gen contracts today with a new IDE. More details. 👇
https://blog.blockstream.com/simplicity-arrives-on-liquid-testnet/While building Simplicity, we developed a more developer-friendly "front-end" language called Simfony, which resembles the Rust programming language while elegantly mapping down to Simplicity.
Simfony abstracts away some of Simplicity's functional programming details, making it much easier for developers to write programs and contracts.
Developers can start building today with a new web IDE as a playground for creating Simfony smart contracts. We've provided some example programs to showcase various use cases, some of which are not possible in Bitcoin Script. The IDE also provides tools for managing public keys and generating addresses on the Liquid testnet.
