Abstract
Vulcan is an open-source Blockchain & Cloud Computing project. Development framework for Foundry projects. Initially, Vulcan will provide functionality similar to what is already included in forge's VM and forge-std. It is built using Solidity, Ethereum, Rust. Key capabilities include: Mocking framework; Deployment management framework. The complete source code is publicly available on GitHub under the MIT License, making it a useful reference for students building a Blockchain & Cloud Computing mini project or final-year project.
1. Introduction
Initially, Vulcan will provide functionality similar to what is already included in forge's VM and forge-std.
Over time, Vulcan will grow to include more functionality and utilities, eventually becoming a feature-rich development framework.
Development framework for Foundry projects, with a focus on developer experience and readability.
2. Objective
Development framework for Foundry projects
This project demonstrates how Solidity, Ethereum, Rust can be applied to a real-world Blockchain & Cloud Computing problem.
3. Key Features / Modules
- Mocking framework
- Deployment management framework
4. Technology Stack
5. System Requirements
General requirements for this technology stack — check the README for exact versions.
- Node.js and npm
- Hardhat / Truffle / Remix IDE
- MetaMask wallet with a test network
- Rust toolchain (rustup / cargo)
- Git (to clone the repository)
6. Installation & Setup
git clone https://github.com/nomoixyz/vulcan.git
cd vulcan$ forge install nomoixyz/vulcan$ forge install nomoixyz/vulcan@x.y.zFull setup instructions are in the project README.
7. Future Enhancements
Suggested extensions you can add to make this your own project.
- Add a CI/CD pipeline with GitHub Actions
- Deploy to a public test network or cloud free tier
- Add monitoring and cost alerts
8. Viva / Review Questions
Common questions examiners ask for projects in this domain.
- Why does this problem need a blockchain or cloud-native design?
- Explain the smart contract / infrastructure components and how they interact.
- How are gas costs or cloud costs kept under control?
- How is the system secured (keys, IAM, access control)?
- How would the solution scale to many more users?
