Amareleo

Amareleo is an open-source toolset for Leo developers.

At this stage, Amareleo delivers amareleo-chain, a lightweight development node that allows for deploying and testing Aleo programs on a local node. Amareleo-Chain is designed as a much lighter drop-in replacement for snarkOS/devnet.sh.

Key benefits:

  1. Ease of Use – Starting a development testnet is as simple as running amareleo-chain start. No extra scripts, no multiple processes, all default parameters set for quick aleo program testing.

  2. Lite – Just one process, with minimal memory and CPU usage.

  3. Fast Startup/Shutdown – Drastically reduced node startup and shutdown times.

  4. Fresh Chain State – Start testing programs with a fresh chain state (default) or retain the chain state across tests.

  5. Compatibility – Compatible with other Aleo tools including snarkOS and leo.
