When the "Compilation Details" button is clicked ( **G. in image below**), a modal opens displaying detailed information about the current selected contract.
From this tab, you can also publish your contract to Swarm (only non
abstract contracts can be published).
Published data notably contains the `abi` and solidity source code.

After a contract is published, you can find its metadata information

- Functions that have red buttons are `payable` functions in Solidity. Clicking one of these will create a new transaction and this transaction can accept a **value**. The **value** is put in in the Value field which is under the Gas Limit field.
