Making Your Crypto Operation Smarter

Human beings can do a lot of things really well, and yet there is nothing we do better than growing on a consistent basis. This progressive approach, on our part, has already got us to hit upon some huge milestones, with technology appearing as a major member of the stated group. The reason why technology enjoys such an esteemed stature among people is, by and large, based on its skill-set, which ushered us towards a reality that nobody could have ever imagined otherwise. Nevertheless, if we look up close for a second, it will become clear how the whole runner was also very much inspired from the way we applied those skills across a real world environment. The latter component was, in fact, what gave the creation a spectrum-wide presence, and consequentially, kickstarted a tech revolution. Of course, this revolution then went on to scale up the human experience through some outright unique avenues, but even after achieving such a monumental feat, technology will somehow continue to produce the goods. The same has turned increasingly evident over the recent past, and assuming a new crypto-centric development shakes out just like we envision, it will only make that trend bigger and better moving forward.

Hiro, the developer tools company for Bitcoin layers, has officially launched a new hosted development environment named Hiro platform, which is designed to facilitate the creation and deployment of Bitcoin smart contracts directly from a web browser and also without the need for any extra software installations. According to certain reports, Hiro Platform is well-equipped in terms of helping developers streamline their workflows with a convenient, ready-to-use development environment. Within this environment, you can access a wide assortment of pre-constructed smart contract templates so to fulfil various different Web3 use cases, including Bitcoin NFTs and trustless swaps between Stacks and Ordinals, and Stacks and Lightning. Notably enough, Hiro Platform makes a point to use Clarity for writing down these smart contracts, and in case you aren’t quite aware of Clarity, it’s the main programming language of Bitcoin smart contract layer, Stacks. Another feature worth a mention here is how the solution cuts back on context switching for developers, something that allows the user to quickly discover smart contracts, clone examples, initiate deployment or, in some cases, even customize the elements as per the individual needs. Talk about the customization aspect, the developers who choose to tread this way can also save their code in one convenient cloud-based location. Hold on, there are still a few bits left to unpack. If a developer is working with their own code, they can further share it to GitHub for the purpose of seamless collaboration. In case the stated value still doesn’t seem like much, then it must be acknowledged that Hiro Platform also delivers at your disposal several specialized tools like VS Code, Git, Clarinet, and more, to reduce the procedure’s timeline and ensure faster deployment.

“The Hiro Platform not only increases developer productivity but also reduces the friction in deploying smart contracts on Bitcoin layers, ultimately driving the growth and adoption of decentralized applications,” said Alex Miller, CEO of Hiro. “This comes at a crucial moment as excitement for building on Bitcoin reaches an all-time high.”

Founded during the year 2021, Hiro has pretty much pioneered seamless development of smart contracts. However, by letting developers build, unit-test, debug, and deploy all from a web browser from here onwards, the company is now expected to realize an impact far more significant than ever seen before in this space.
