Scope

To enhance the experience of deploying Appchains, the TRH team has developed a Deployment SDK that simplifies the process of deploying a chain based on the Thanos Stack (Optimistic Rollup). The SDK guides users through a series of interactive questions, enabling them to successfully deploy a devnet on their local machine or a testnet chain on AWS.

The objective of this test is to gather feedback on your experience using the Deployment SDK. This includes:

We want to make the deployment process so smooth so that the deployer can do it with minimal help from outside world.

Testing Period

The SDK testing will take place over a one-week period, from April 8, 2025, to April 15, 2025.

Getting Started

You can use the following resources to begin testing the Deployment SDK:

  1. SDK Guide - https://www.notion.so/tokamak/SDK-Revised-guide-1c8d96a400a380ebbb13e02d276dde35

  2. Troubleshooting Guide - https://www.notion.so/tokamak/Troubleshooting-Guide-19fd96a400a38007bc76e36993b9582b

    The TRH team has identified some errors and issues during testing. If you encounter any problems while deploying, you can refer to the Troubleshooting guide to check for suggested solutions.
