Best Practices

• Use boilerplate-stateful-smart-contract as a template for new smart-contracts.
• Use zero address to prevent future updates or deletion of a smart-contract.
• It is highly recommended not to use arrow functions in tests due to the problem of scope of this keyword in javascript. Use only regular function expressions. For more details go to mocha.

Entry points

Deployment

• Use the compile endpoint of the Developer API to convert your TEAL source code into the byte string required by the SDKs.
• Use the makeApplicationCreate SDK method types to deploy the initial application.

Interact

• The user will first interact with the application using the makeApplicationOptIn method. After that user can call makeApplicationNoOpTxn method to execute logic within the handle_noop section of the approval program (see boilerplate template linked above). Calls to other makeApplication* type call methods will execute Update, Clear and CloseOut TEAL code section from the boilerplate template.
