FAQPage Schema
What is the Flare network architecture and its core protocols?

The Flare network is an EVM-compatible L1 featuring enshrined protocols like FTSO, FDC, FAssets, Smart Accounts, and FCC, designed for data-rich interoperability across its Mainnet, Songbird, Coston, and Coston2 networks.

How do I get started developing on Flare with Hardhat or Foundry?

To start developing on Flare, use standard EVM tooling like Hardhat, Foundry, viem, or wagmi by connecting to the appropriate RPC endpoints and configuring your environment with the correct chain IDs for your target network.

Where can I find RPC endpoints, chain IDs, and faucets for Flare Songbird and Coston2?

Flare provides reference material for its networks, including RPC URLs, blockchain explorers, faucet URLs, chain IDs, and native tokens for Mainnet, Songbird, Coston2, and Coston to configure your development environment.

Does Flare support EVM tools like viem and wagmi for smart contract development?

Yes, Flare is fully EVM-compatible and supports standard development tooling including Hardhat, Foundry, viem, and wagmi, allowing developers to use familiar Ethereum workflows for deploying smart contracts.

What are FTSO, FDC, and FAssets on the Flare network?

FTSO, FDC, and FAssets are enshrined core protocols on the Flare network that provide decentralized data feeds, consensus verification, and wrapped asset functionality directly into the EVM-compatible L1 architecture.
