🎁 [Feature Request]: PolkaVM-Template

[kianenigma]

templates

• [ ] Generic Runtime Template
• [ ] Evm Template

What is the feature you would like to see?

https://github.com/paritytech/contract-issues/issues/13

pallet-revive and revive RPC binary are the replacement that Parity is working on instead of pallet-evm and Frontier.

revive-based smart contracts are what we intend to deploy on AssetHub, and are generally the technology that we intend to maintain more long term.

These are not fully ready yet.

I suppose your initial proposal explicitly called for the creation of pallet-evm templates. Back then (mid 2023) revive was not a thing yet :)

That all being said, your EVM template would be much more up to date and future-proof if it eventually becomes based on revive.

I suggest you to monitor the development of revive, and have a plan to migrate your template as soon as revive is stable to it. This can be incorporated in future governance funding as well.

PolkaVM template should live in its own template independent of evm-template because Frontier is more stable and therefore more useful right now. We should NOT remove evm-template until PolkaVM achieves comparable stability.
