🏗️ Development

✅ Running Tests

Before running the test command, ensure the required test file exists:

Create a folder out/test/ if it does not exist and add the following file sample.hs:

module Sample where

import Data.List

factorial :: Integer -> Integer
factorial 0 = 1
factorial n = n * factorial (n - 1)

main :: IO ()
main = print (factorial 5)

To run tests:

npm run test

🔗 API Integration

CardanoVSC integrates with Cardano APIs using API keys. Ensure your .env file contains:

CARDANO_API_KEY=your_api_key_here
