Here is the brief description. -For more, check out the [Remix documentation on ReadTheDocs](https://remix-ide.readthedocs.io/en/latest/index.html). ++ [`remix-analyzer`](remix-analyzer/README.md): Tool to perform static analysis on Solidity smart contracts to check security vulnerabilities and bad development practices ++ [`remix-astwalker`](remix-tests/README.md): Tool to parse solidity AST (Abstract Syntax Tree) ++ [`remix-debug`](remix-debug/README.md): Tool to debug Ethereum transactions. It provides several controls that allow stepping over the trace and seeing the current state of a selected step. ++ [`remix-solidity`](remix-solidity/README.md): Tool to load a Solidity compiler from provided URL and compile the contract using loaded compiler and return the compilation details ++ [`remix-lib`](remix-lib/README.md): A common place for libraries being used across multiple modules ++ [`remix-tests`](remix-tests/README.md): Tool to unit test Solidity smart contracts.

Usage of modules as plugin is well documented **[here](https://remix-ide.readthedocs.io/en/latest/index.html)**. -### Prerequisites - -To use Remix tools, you'll need to connect to an Ethereum node. You can do that using [the Mist browser](https://github.com/ethereum/mist), or by connecting to your local Ethereum node (`geth`, or `eth`). *Note: connecting to `geth` does not work through https.* - -+ Using `geth`: `geth --rpc --rpcapi 'web3,eth,debug' --rpcport 8545 --rpccorsdomain '*'`. - -+ Using `eth`: `eth -j --rpccorsdomain '*'` - -**DO NOT DO EXECUTE THESE COMMANDS IF `geth`/`eth` STORES YOUR PRIVATE KEYS**, as any external system might be able to access your node's RPC server! - -Those commands will run the RPC server on `localhost:8545`, which is the default URL that Remix will connect to. This instance should **only** be used for debugging purposes. Never use features that could have an impact on your keys: do not unlock any keys, do not use this instance together with the wallet, do not activate the admin `web3` API. - -### Run the debugger - -See [here](remix-debugger/README.md) how to install, run and use the debugger locally. - -The debugger itself contains several controls that allow stepping over the trace and seeing the current state of a selected step. - -## Remix Modules - -Remix is built out of several different modules: - -+ [`remix-analyzer`](remix-analyzer/README.md) -+ [`remix-solidity`](remix-solidity/README.md) provides Solidity analysis and decoding functions. -+ [`remix-lib`](remix-lib/README.md) -+ [`remix-debug`](remix-debug/README.md) allo debuggin transaction. -+ [`remix-tests`](remix-tests/README.md) provides unit testing for solidity. -+ [`remix-astwalker`](remix-tests/README.md) provides a tool for parsing solidity AST. -+ [`remix-url-resolver`](remix-url-resolver/README.md) provides helpers for resolving external content (github, swarm, ipfs, ...). -+ [`remixd`](https://github.com/ethereum/remixd/tree/master) CLI which allow accessing local element from Remix IDE (see https://remix-ide.readthedocs.io/en/latest/remixd.html) +## Contributing -Each module generally has their own npm package and test suite, as well as basic documentation. +Everyone is very welcome to contribute on the codebase of Remix.
