Setting up an Ethereum Development Environment

Published On: 27 December 2022.By Anagh Kumar.

Here I am going to list all the developer tools and framework which are going to used for ethereum development.

List of Developer Tools are as follows:-

Solidity — Ethereum smart contracting language
Bamboo — A morphing smart contract language
Vyper — New experimental pythonic programming language
LLL — Low-level Lisp-like Language
Flint — New language under development with security features including asset types, state transition, and safe integers

Truffle — Most popular smart contract development, testing, and deployment framework. The Truffle suite includes Truffle, Ganache, and Drizzle.
Embark — Framework for DApp development
Waffle — Framework for advanced smart contract development and testing, small, flexible, fast (based on ethers.js)
Dapp — Framework for DApp development, successor to DApple
Populus — The Ethereum development framework with the most cute animal pictures
Etherlime — ethers.js based framework for Dapp deployment
Parasol — Agile smart contract development environment with testing, INFURA deployment, automatic contract documentation and more. It features a a flexible and unopinionated design with unlimited customizability
0xcert — JavaScript framework for building decentralized applications

Remix — Web IDE with built in static analysis, test blockchain VM.
Superblocks Lab — Web IDE. Built in browser blochain VM, Metamask integration (one click deployments to Testnet/Mainnet), transaction logger and live code your WebApp among many other features.
Atom — Atom editor with Atom Solidity Linter, Etheratom, autocomplete-solidity, and language-solidity packages
Pragma — Very simple web IDE for solidity, and auto-generated interfaces for smart contracts.
Vim solidity — Vim syntax file for solidity
Visual Studio Code — Visual Studio Code extension that adds support for Solidity
Intellij Solidity Plugin — Open-source plug-in for JetBrains IntelliJ Idea IDE (free/commercial) with syntax highlighting, formatting, code completion etc.
YAKINDU Solidity Tools — Eclipse based IDE. Features context sensitive code completion and help, code navigation, syntax coloring, build in compiler, quick fixes and templates.
Eth Fiddle — IDE developed by The Loom Network that allows you to write, compile and debug your smart contract. Easy to share and find code snippets.

Ganache — App for test Ethereum blockchain with visual UI and logs
Kaleido — Use Kaleido for spinning up a consortium blockchain network. Great for PoCs and testing
Pantheon Private Network — Run a private network of Pantheon nodes in a Docker container ** Orion — Component for performing private transactions by PegaSys ** Artemis — Java implementation of the Ethereum 2.0 Beacon Chain by PegaSys
Cliquebait — Simplifies integration and accepting testing of smart contract applications with docker instances that closely resembles a real blockchain network
Local Raiden — Run a local Raiden network in docker containers for demo and testing purposes
Private networks deployment scripts — Out-of-the-box deployment scripts for private PoA networks
Local Ethereum Network — Out-of-the-box deployment scripts for private PoW networks
Ethereum on Azure — Deployment and governance of consortium Ethereum PoA networks
getho — DApp development platform including PoA private blockchain and Smart Contract testing tool.
Ethereum on Google Cloud — Build Ethereum network based on Proof of Work
