# Getting started with the contracts

All contract code can be viewed in the [contracts repo](https://github.com/railgun-privacy/contract). Deployment addresses (including testnet deployments) can be viewed in the [deployments repo](https://github.com/railgun-community/deployments).

To setup a local development environment:

1. Clone the contracts repo (`git clone git@github.com:railgun-privacy/contract.git`)
2. Install dependencies (`cd contract && npm install`)
3. Run a local development network in a new terminal window (`cd contract && npx hardhat node`)
4. Deploy contracts to development network (`npx hardhat deploy:test --network localhost`)

After running the `deploy:test` hardhat script you should see something like the following printed to your terminal:

```json
{
  "delegator": "0x5FC8d32690cc91D4c39d9d3abcBD16989F875707",
  "governorRewardsImplementation": "",
  "governorRewardsProxy": "",
  "implementation": "0xB7f8BC63BbcaD18155201308C8f3540b07f84F5e",

  "relayAdapt": "0x0355B7B8cb128fA5692729Ab3AAa199C1753f726"
}
```

You will primarily be interacting with the `proxy` contract which is a EIP1967 `Transparent Upgradeable Proxy` for the `implementation` contract. Functions on the proxy are only accessible when called by the`proxyAdmin` contract so function selector clashes are not an issue.
