The most important progress from last week is initial work on transactions. I’ve spent quite some time thinking about the design and even implemented an initial wallet contract alongside with related infrastructure.

It was a challenging week working on storage access checks for slots, but it is over, and I’m quite happy with how things are looking right now. Some extra refactoring also allowed running tests under Miri and spotted some things that violate the Rust safety rules.

Last week felt a bit less productive with a lot of time spent thinking about how to approach slots conflict resolution in the native execution environment, but still managed to land a few improvements, especially on the documentation side. Also conducted four separate interviews.

After a lot of refactoring and preparation, native execution environment is finally functional and can be used for purposes like writing tests and debugging.

Last week was busy with refactoring with the primary goal of being able to run contracts in test execution environment. The environment is not quite ready yet, but a lot of progress was done, and it’ll hopefully be ready next week.

Last week was busy on various improvements for contracts infrastructure, trying to clarify existing API and ensuring everything that might be built is actually possible. First system contracts were introduced, trait support was added and more, below is a recap of key updates.

Hello, world 👋! This is the beginning of hopefully successful thing I call “Project Abundance”. After writing initial set of constraints and thinking about it for quite a while, it is finally time to dedicate all my time to it and see where it leads us.
