Setting up the environment

To start working with Tolk, you’ll need a development environment.

We recommend using Blueprint, a tool for writing, testing, and deploying smart contracts on TON.

Create a new TON project​

(Node.js version 16 or higher required)

  1. Create a new TON project:

    npm create ton@latest

  2. Enter any project name and select "A simple counter contract (Tolk)" when prompted by Blueprint.

Project structure:​

my-first-contract/
├── build/             # Compiled smart contract bytecode
├── contracts/         # Smart contract sources (e.g., counter.tolk)
├── scripts/           # TypeScript deployment scripts
├── tests/             # TypeScript tests
├── wrappers/          # TypeScript wrappers for contracts

Build​

npx blueprint build or yarn blueprint build

The result (smart contract(s) bytecode and its hash) will be displayed in the console and saved in build/ directory.

Test​

npx blueprint test or yarn blueprint test

Run unit tests from the test/ folder.

Deploy or run script​

npx blueprint run or yarn blueprint run

This way, you can deploy your smart contract to the mainnet, testnet, or MyLocalTon.

IDE Support​

Tolk is supported by the IntelliJ IDEs and VS Code with "TON" extension.
