Short, Self Contained, Correct Examples of code on Hedera.

See: sscce.org

Snippets

Contributing

What to contribute

  • Something that you think will be useful to developers working on Hedera technology.
  • Something can be reduced to a short, self-contained, correct example. See sscce.org.
    • If your code example cannot be turned into an SSCCE, e.g. it is too complex, consider contributing a full repo on its own instead.
  • Something that you think is worth explaining. For example:
    • Solutions/ workarounds for commonly encountered issues.
    • Demonstrate nuances/ differences between Hedera and other DLTs.
    • Doing something tricky.

How to contribute

Submit a pull request with a new directory containing your code snippet, plus a README file that explains it.

Suggested steps:

  • Fork this repo into your github account.
  • Clone your forked repo.
  • Create a new branch with the name of your code snippet as the branch name.
  • Create a new directory in the root directory of this repo with the name of your code snippet.
  • Copy the template README file from templates/README.md into your new code snippet directory.
  • Add one (or more) code files for your code snippet.
  • Edit the README file to replace the placeholders - use existing code snippets' README files as a reference.
  • Edit the main README file for this repo to add a link to your code snippet under ## Snippets.
