Practical overview
When it fits
Use Squeeth when the intended task is ETH²-index exposure through a power perpetual, or when exploring its frontend and contract implementation locally.
Who it is for
- Traders seeking long or short exposure to an ETH² index.
- Developers inspecting or working with the Squeeth frontend and smart contracts.
Documented uses
- Take long or short exposure to the ETH² index through a power perpetual.
- Inspect the frontend and smart-contract source code.
- Run the frontend and contracts in a local Hardhat development environment.
Requirements & limits
- The repository includes both frontend and contract code.
- The documented local setup requires Node LTS, Yarn, and three terminal windows.
- The README directs users to the GitBook and package-specific documentation for further protocol and implementation details.
Check current requirements in the official documentation. Source-based guidance does not mean OpenViST has run or independently tested this project.
Start the local Squeeth development environment
Launch the local Hardhat chain and frontend, deploy the contract, and open the app.
Before you start
- Node LTS
- Yarn
- Three terminal windows
Steps
In the first terminal, go to packages/hardhat, run yarn install, then run yarn chain.
In a second terminal, go to packages/frontend, run yarn install, then run yarn dev.
In a third terminal, go to packages/hardhat and run yarn deploy.
Open http://localhost:3000.
Expected outcome
The README directs the developer to the frontend at localhost:3000 after starting the local chain and deploying the contract.
Guide limitations
- Further instructions for the frontend and contracts are in their respective package folders.
