Practical overview

When it fits

Use the repository when you need a codebase and documented commands for local Substrate chain development or a two-validator testnet.

Who it is for

  • Developers exploring a Substrate-based blockchain for decentralized applications or games.
  • Developers who want to build a node and test smart-contract or network development locally.

Documented uses

  • Build Wasm and native node code.
  • Start a development chain with Alice and Bob as initial authorities.
  • Run two local validator nodes to observe multi-node consensus.
  • Explore a network that supports EVM-compatible and WASM smart contracts.
Before you choose

Requirements & limits

The repository is public and lists an Apache-2.0 license.

  • The project is built with Substrate and Rust, and its repository documents command-line build and run workflows.
  • The README supports both EVM-compatible and WASM smart contracts.
  • The documented validator setup is local and uses Alice and Bob as the initial authorities.
  • The README describes the project as a work in progress.

Check current requirements in the official documentation. Source-based guidance does not mean OpenViST has run or independently tested this project.

Source-based practical guide

Build and start a development chain

Compile the node's Wasm and native code, then start the documented development chain.

Before you start

  • The Metaverse Network repository
  • A command-line environment with the project's build prerequisites

Steps

  1. From the project, run the command below to build Wasm and native code.

    Documented command
    make build

  2. Run the command below to start a development Metaverse chain with Alice and Bob as initial authorities.

    Documented command
    make run-dev

Expected outcome

A local development chain is started with Alice and Bob as initial authorities.

Guide limitations

  • The README identifies the project as a work in progress.
  • The README does not specify the full installation of build prerequisites.

Source-based practical guide

Start the documented two-node local testnet

Run Alice and Bob as validator nodes on a local two-node testnet.

Before you start

  • A built Metaverse Network node
  • Two terminal windows

Steps

  1. Start Alice with the README's the command below command, using /tmp/alice as the base path, the local chain, Alice's authority flag and TCP port 30333.

    Documented command
    cargo run

  2. Start Bob with the README's second the command below command, using /tmp/bob, the local chain, Bob's authority flag and TCP port 30334.

    Documented command
    cargo run

  3. Use the documented bootnode address to connect Bob to Alice.

Expected outcome

Two local validator nodes are configured to connect for the testnet.

Guide limitations

  • The guide describes a local development testnet, not production deployment.
  • The README does not specify full prerequisite installation.
