Sky Protocol is infrastructure for modular blockchains, starting with a Data Availability Network.

You should have Nix package manager (1) on your system or NixOS (2) as your OS for this to work:

1. https://github.com/DeterminateSystems/nix-installer
2. https://nixos.org/

If you're using NixOS, make sure to enable nix flakes if not yet enabled by default by its version of nix. Determinate Nix has flakes enabled by default.

(Optional, since nix run later in the guide will build everything as needed.)

nix build

To run the automated tests:

nix develop
cabal test

To run manual tests directly against the Cardano preview network, see doc/Preview.md.

If you want to participate in active development, see doc/HACKING.md
