Injective (INJ)has announced the release of its Remix Web IDE plugin, a new web-based integrated development environment (IDE) designed to streamline the process of writing, testing, and deploying smart contracts. This launch marks a significant milestone for the Injective ecosystem, allowing developers to build directly from their web browsers, according to Injective Blog.

Background

One of the most significant challenges in software development is the initial setup—downloading the necessary tools and dependencies, configuring everything correctly, and ensuring compatibility with different machines. This often results in wasted hours troubleshooting before any actual coding begins.

With the Remix Web IDE, these frustrations are eliminated. The entire development workflow has been streamlined into an accessible online platform, enabling Injective developers to be productive from anywhere, on any device. This removes the need for tedious binary downloads and configuration hassles—developers can simply visit the website and start building.

Getting Started with Remix IDE

To start building, developers can open the Remix Web IDE. Upon creating a project, users can choose between a template and a new project. Selecting the template option populates the IDE with a simple counter example, providing a quick start for developers.

Compiling Smart Contracts

• Select the project to compile in the TARGET PROJECT section.
• Choose a compilation option and click the Compile button.
• Once compilation is complete, the wasm and schema files are returned.

Storing the Code

After compiling the contract, a Store Code button will appear. Click this button to store the code.

Instantiating the Contract

• When the Store Code process is completed, a Code ID is generated.
• You can choose to allow contract upgrades or make them immutable through the immutable option.
• If there are arguments for contract instantiation, input the parameters and click the Instantiate button. The arguments are generated via react-jsonschema-form.

Executing the Contract

• Select the method to run.
• Add parameters as needed.
• Execute the method by clicking the Query or Execute buttons. If sending a transaction, sign the transaction by clicking the Send button inside the wallet.

With these steps, developers can successfully compile, store, instantiate, and execute their first Injective smart contract directly from their browser.
