About This Project
A developer productivity tool that provides copy-paste ready, executable snippets for common Cardano blockchain operations. The project addresses the frustrating experience developers face when googling "how to mint NFT Cardano" and finding scattered, outdated documentation with non-functional code examples.
Each snippet is provided in both Lucid Evolution (JavaScript) and cardano-cli (Bash) implementations, allowing developers to choose their preferred approach or learn both methodologies side-by-side. All snippets are tested on Cardano preprod and work out of the box.
The repository serves as living documentation that bridges the gap between theoretical API docs and practical, runnable code that developers actually need in their daily work.
Key Features
