Cairo

Cairo 🐺 is a blazing fast compiler for the Cairo language, written in 🦀 Rust 🦀. It provides a powerful toolset for creating provable programs for general computation, leveraging the speed and safety of Rust.

Cairo is the first Turing-complete language for creating provable programs. It is designed to support general computation in a verifiable manner.

To get started with Cairo, you need to install Rust. Set up Rust with the following commands:

rustup override set stable && rustup update

Ensure Rust was installed correctly by running the following command from the root project directory:

cargo test

cargo run --bin cairo-compile -- --single-file /path/to/input.cairo /path/to/output.sierra --replace-ids

cargo run --bin sierra-compile -- /path/to/input.sierra /path/to/output.casm

cargo run --bin cairo-run -- --single-file /path/to/file.cairo

For more information and examples, refer to the examples directory in the project repository.

cargo run --bin starknet-compile -- --single-file /path/to/input.cairo /path/to/output.json

Or specify the contract path if multiple contracts are defined in the same project:

cargo run --bin starknet-compile -- /path/to/input/crate /path/to/output.json --contract-path path::to::contract

cargo run --bin starknet-sierra-compile -- /path/to/input.json /path/to/output.casm

To develop with Cairo, install the language server by following the instructions provided in vscode-cairo.

If you wish to support the development of Cairo, consider the following:

• Add a GitHub Star to the project.
• Tweet about your work with Cairo.
• Write articles about the project on Dev.to, Medium, or your personal blog.
