Before you choose

Requirements & limits

The README describes card acquisition using ETH and lists MetaMask in the web3 front-end stack. It also identifies a Ropsten playground deployment; this is a historical deployment reference, not confirmation of current availability.

  • Cards carry points used to determine battle outcomes, and the contract determines whether higher or lower points win each round.
  • The README describes a randomly generated number competing with the player and says the game winner receives a prize.
  • The front end uses React, Redux, Saga and Web3; the repository identifies Truffle, Ganache and IPFS in its development and hosting stack.
  • The public repository specifies an MIT license.

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

Set up the local development dependencies

Before you start

  • Node.js 8.0 or later is recommended.
  • Windows, Linux or macOS.
  • The repository's source code.

Steps

  1. Install ganache-cli globally with npm.

  2. Install Truffle globally with npm.

  3. Run npm install in the project to install contract dependencies.

Expected outcome

The documented local development dependencies and project packages are installed; the README lists separate instructions for starting Ganache, compiling and migrating contracts, and running tests.

Guide limitations
