Integrated (Ethereum) Development Environments

• Ape

  A Python-based web3 development tool for compiling, testing, and interacting with smart contracts.

• Brownie

  A Python-based development and testing framework for smart contracts targeting the Ethereum Virtual Machine. 💡 Note: As per the official docs, Brownie is no longer actively maintained. Future releases may come sporadically - or never at all. Check out Ape Framework (first in list) for all your python Ethereum development needs.

• Dapp

  Tool for building, testing and deploying smart contracts from the command-line.

• Foundry

  Fast, portable and modular toolkit for Ethereum application development written in Rust.

• Hardhat

  Ethereum development environment with local Ethereum network, debugging features and plugin ecosystem.

• Remix

  Browser-based IDE with integrated compiler and Solidity runtime environment without server-side components.

• Truffle

  Ethereum development framework. 💡 Note: Consensys announced the sunset of Truffle on September 21, 2023. Current users may check out the migration path and available product support here.

Editor Integrations

• Emacs

  • Emacs Solidity

    Plugin for the Emacs editor providing syntax highlighting and compilation error reporting.

• IntelliJ

  • IntelliJ IDEA plugin

    Solidity plugin for IntelliJ IDEA (and all other JetBrains IDEs).

• Sublime Text

  • Package for SublimeText - Solidity language syntax

    Solidity syntax highlighting for SublimeText editor.

• Vim

  • Vim Solidity by Thesis

    Syntax highlighting for Solidity in Vim.

  • Vim Solidity by TovarishFin

    Vim syntax file for Solidity.

  • Vim Syntastic

    Plugin for the Vim editor providing compile checking.

• Visual Studio Code (VS Code)

  • Ethereum Remix Visual Studio Code extension

    Ethereum Remix extension pack for VS Code 💡 Note: As per the official repository, this extension has been removed from the VSCODE marketplace and will be replaced by a dedicated stand-alone desktop application.

  • Solidity Visual Studio Code extension, by Juan Blanco

    Solidity plugin for Microsoft Visual Studio Code that includes syntax highlighting and the Solidity compiler.

  • Solidity Visual Studio Code extension, by Nomic Foundation

    Solidity and Hardhat support by the Hardhat team, including: syntax highlighting, jump to definition, renames, quick fixes and inline solc warnings and errors.

  • Solidity Visual Auditor extension

    Adds security centric syntax and semantic highlighting to Visual Studio Code.

  • Truffle for VS Code

    Build, debug and deploy smart contracts on Ethereum and EVM-compatible blockchains. 💡 Note: This extension has built-in support for the Truffle Suite which is being sunset. For information on ongoing support, migration options and FAQs, visit the Consensys blog.

Solidity Tools

• ABI to Solidity interface converter

  A script for generating contract interfaces from the ABI of a smart contract.

• abi-to-sol

  Tool to generate Solidity interface source from a given ABI JSON.
