Overview

Solidity++ is a smart contract language derived from Solidity (opens new window) that is used to create smart contracts on the Vite (opens new window) blockchain. Solidity++ embraces Solidity’s underlying message passing infrastructure, allowing the language to be extended to an asynchronous design that is highly compatible with high throughput DAG-based blockchains like Vite.

Solidity++ Features

• Based on Solidity. Easier to learn and to port existing contracts.

• Asynchronous design allows for high throughput on DAG-based blockchains.

• Secure by default against reentrancy and flash-loan attacks .

• Support for native tokens, random numbers, scheduled tasks and more.

• Vite's feeless ecosystem and Quota system enable new possibilities for dApps.

This Guide

This guide is designed for aspiring smart contract developers. You're expected to have some basic programming knowledge, but previous Solidity/Solidity++ experience is not needed.

The goal of this guide is to have you writing contracts and deploying your own dApps as quickly as possible, so we will not cover some important details of the underlying Vite architecture. Once you complete this guide, there is much more to learn through reading the Vite documentation (opens new window).
