The Fe Guide

Build and test

Please make sure Rust is installed.

Basic

The following commands only build the Fe -> Yul compiler components.

• build the CLI: cargo build
• test: cargo test --workspace

Full

The Fe compiler depends on the Solidity compiler for transforming Yul IR to EVM bytecode. We currently use solc-rust to perform this. In order to compile solc-rust, the following must be installed on your system:

• cmake
• boost(1.65+)
• libclang

    brew install boost

Once these have been installed, you may run the full build. This is enabled using the solc-backend feature.

• build the CLI: cargo build --features solc-backend
• test: cargo test --workspace --features solc-backend
