Polkadart Developer Update - Apr 6th
Hello everybody, I’m glad to come here to share with you guys the latest features added to Polkadart in the last few months.
Metadata V15
Polkadart is now compatible with the metadata V15 our CLI is now able to generate all types based in the metadata for any Polkadot-SDK blockchain. This makes the process of interacting with the blockchain way easier for developers.
You can check our guide type generator guide here: Type generator | Polkadart
Merkleized Metadata & CheckMetadata
Last year we had the release of the merkleized metadata per RFC-0078 allowing an extra security check specially for off-line devices and making it possible for improvements like the Generic Ledger Polkadot App to be made.
We now also support this new feature, and you can follow our guide here if you want to use it in your application: Using metadata hash | Polkadart
ink!
Support for ink! contracts have finally arrived at Polkadart, you can now generate classes to interact with smart contracts through ink_cli
, encode and decode the ABIs, send transactions and even deploy contracts to the blockchain, check our guide at: Interacting with ink! Smart Contracts | Polkadart
