Understand the project

Practical overview

When it fits

Use it to learn how Substrate components are structured or to consult its examples while building a Substrate-based project. Keep the upstream Substrate version consistent when reusing its pallets and runtimes.

Who it is for

  • Developers learning Substrate and FRAME blockchain development.
  • Builders seeking example components and node references for Substrate-based projects.

Documented uses

  • Study instructional material alongside the code it explains.
  • Adapt example pallets and runtimes in a Substrate-based blockchain project.
  • Reference consensus-engine and complete-node examples during development.
Before you choose

Requirements & limits

The repository is public, open source and GPL-3.0 licensed. The book can be built and served locally with mdBook.

  • The examples span instructional text, pallets, runtimes, consensus engines and complete nodes.
  • The README says its pallets and runtimes are tested for use in other Substrate-based blockchains, subject to using the same upstream Substrate version throughout the project.
  • The local book-building instructions require mdBook.

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 or serve the book locally

Generate the Substrate Recipes book locally or view it through mdBook's local server.

Before you start

  • The repository's book source.
  • mdBook, installed using the version-parameterized Cargo command in the README.

Steps

  1. Install mdBook with the command below.

    Documented command
    cargo install mdbook --vers [version-num]

  2. Run mdbook build to generate the book in the book subdirectory.

  3. Open book/index.html in a browser, or run mdbook serve to serve the book locally.

Expected outcome

A locally generated HTML book, or a locally served book at the default address http://localhost:3000.

Guide limitations

  • The README recommends using the same mdBook version as the one specified by Rust's rust-book configuration.
