ethereum/ethereum-org-website

This is the repo for the ethereum.org website, a resource for the Ethereum community. The site's purpose is to “Be the best portal to Ethereum for our growing global community" - read more about what this means here.

ethereum.org is being improved and changed over time through the contributions of community members who submit content, give feedback, or volunteer their time to manage its evolution. If you’re interested in helping to improve ethereum.org, find out how to contribute.

Looking for the Ethereum blockchain's code?

If you're looking for the Ethereum blockchain itself, there is no single repo. Instead, Ethereum has multiple implementations of the protocol written in different programming languages for security and diversity. Check out the different implementations

How to contribute

This project follows the all-contributors specification. Contributions of any kind are welcome!

Before you start, please take a moment to read our CONTRIBUTING.md and CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md.

1. Submit an issue

• Create a new issue.
• Comment on the issue (if you'd like to be assigned to it) - that way our team can assign the issue to you.

More information on the issue creation process, and expectations around creating issues can be found here.

2. Fork the repository (repo)

• If you're not sure, here's how to fork the repo.

3. Set up your local environment (optional)

If you're ready to contribute and create your PR, it will help to set up a local environment so you can see your changes.

1. Clone your fork

If this is your first time forking our repo, this is all you need to do for this step:

git clone [email protected]:[your_github_handle]/ethereum-org-website.git && cd ethereum-org-website

If you've already forked the repo, you'll want to ensure your fork is configured and that it's up to date. This will save you the headache of potential merge conflicts.

To configure your fork:

git remote add upstream https://github.com/ethereum/ethereum-org-website.git

To sync your fork with the latest changes:

git checkout dev
git fetch upstream
git merge upstream/dev

2. Prepare package manager

We've upgraded to pnpm to speed up development experience and improve dependency management.

We recommend using a node manager such as nvm to use multiple node versions in your system. We have a .nvmrc file that declares the canonical Node.js version for this project. If you use nvm, you can run nvm use to automatically switch to the correct version.

Use current node version (recommended)

nvm use

Corepack is a tool that allows you to use package managers like pnpm, yarn, and npm without needing to install them globally. It ensures that the correct version of the package manager is used for your project.

Enable corepack (recommended):

corepack enable

3. Install dependencies

pnpm install

Note: On Ubuntu or Debian you may need to run sudo apt update && sudo apt install nodejs npm before running corepack enable or pnpm install.

4. Set up environment variables

cp .env.example .env.local

Migrating from yarn to pnpm

If you previously used yarn to install dependencies, you can safely migrate to pnpm by running the following commands:

# Remove yarn.lock file
rm yarn.lock

# Remove node_modules directory
rm -rf node_modules

# Clean yarn cache (optional)
yarn cache clean

# Install dependencies with pnpm
pnpm install

This will cleanly switch the project working directory from yarn to pnpm without leaving any residual yarn configuration.

4. Make awesome changes!

1. Create new branch for your changes

git checkout -b new_branch_name

2. Start developing!

pnpm dev

• Open this directory in your favorite text editor / IDE, and see your changes live by visiting localhost:3000 from your browser
• Pro Tip:
  • Explore scripts within package.json for more build options
  • Get faster production builds by building only one language, e.g., in your .env file, set NEXT_PUBLIC_BUILD_LOCALES=en to build the content only in English
  • To build the site in other selected languages too, you need to set them in NEXT_PUBLIC_BUILD_LOCALES, eg: NEXT_PUBLIC_BUILD_LOCALES=en,es if you also want to build only English (required) and Spanish.
  • To build all languages, simply comment this line out with a hash mark, eg: # NEXT_PUBLIC_BUILD_LOCALES=

By default the script will build all the languages (complete list in i18n.config.json).

3. Commit and prepare for pull request (PR). In your PR commit message, reference the issue it resolves (see how to link a commit message to an issue using a keyword).

git commit -m "brief description of changes [Fixes #1234]"

4. Push to your GitHub account

git push

5. Submit your PR

• After your changes are committed to your GitHub fork, submit a pull request (PR) to the dev branch of the ethereum/ethereum-org-website repo
• In your PR description, reference the issue it resolves (see linking a pull request to an issue using a keyword)
  • ex. Updates out of date content [Fixes #1234]
• Netlify (our hosting service for build previews) deploys all PRs to a publicly accessible preview URL, e.g.,:
• Confirm that your Netlify preview deploy looks and functions as expected
• Why not say hi and draw attention to your PR in our discord server?

6. Wait for review

• The website team reviews every PR
• See how decisions are made on content changes
• Acceptable PRs will be approved & merged into the dev branch

Learn more about how we review pull requests here.

7. Release

• master is continually synced to Netlify and will automatically deploy new commits to ethereum.org
• Learn more about how we deploy the site here
• You can view the history of releases, which include PR highlights
