Practical overview
When it fits
Use the repository when you want to work on Ricochet’s frontend or examine a React, Redux and redux-saga implementation with a configurable subgraph endpoint.
Who it is for
- Developers exploring or modifying a React-based DeFi application frontend.
- Contributors working with Redux, redux-saga, and subgraph configuration.
Documented uses
- Start the frontend locally using Yarn.
- Inspect or modify the app’s React components, containers, store, utilities and hooks.
- Configure the frontend’s subgraph endpoint or chain identifier.
- Prepare a repository change through a fork, branch and pull request.
Requirements & limits
- The project is a frontend application, not blockchain infrastructure.
- The README documents Yarn installation and startup commands.
- The default configuration names the Superfluid Matic subgraph and chain ID 137.
- The README identifies a node-sass compilation issue on arm64 MacBooks and gives a workaround.
- The documented configuration supports changing the endpoint or chain ID, but does not establish compatibility with arbitrary replacements.
Check current requirements in the official documentation. Source-based guidance does not mean OpenViST has run or independently tested this project.
Install and start the frontend
Install the project dependencies and start the Ricochet frontend locally.
Before you start
- The Ricochet Frontend repository
- Yarn
Steps
Run
yarn installto install dependencies.Run
yarn startto start the project.
Expected outcome
The README’s documented local startup process is initiated.
Guide limitations
- The README notes that node-sass does not work on arm64 MacBooks; its workaround is to replace node-sass with sass and comment out the
@extend .linklines to address compilation errors.
