Upgradable Smart Contracts Example

This project demonstrates the implementation of upgradable smart contracts using the OpenZeppelin Contracts Upgradeable repository. It serves as a practical example for developers looking to understand and apply upgradeable patterns in their Ethereum smart contracts to ensure future-proofing and flexibility in their blockchain applications.

Features

• Utilizes OpenZeppelin's upgradeable contracts for secure, future-proof smart contract development.
• Includes example scripts for deploying and interacting with smart contracts on Ethereum.
• Provides a foundation for building complex, upgradeable systems on the blockchain.

Prerequisites

Before you begin, ensure you have installed:

• Node.js
• Foundry

Getting Started

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone <repository-url>
   

2. Install Dependencies:

   npm install
   

3. Compile the Smart Contracts:

   forge build
   

Usage

Anvil

Start a local Ethereum node for testing. Anvil is a local Ethereum node designed for development, making it easy to deploy contracts and run tests:

anvil

Deploy

Deploy the example Counter smart contract to a live network. This command uses the forge CLI to run a deployment script located in the script directory:

forge script script/Counter.s.sol:CounterScript --rpc-url <your_rpc_url> --private-key <your_private_key>

Cast

Interact with deployed contracts using cast. Cast is a Swiss Army knife for Ethereum developers, allowing you to query and interact with the blockchain:

cast <subcommand>
