Migrate smart contracts to Algorand TypeScript 1.0 from either TEALScript or Algorand TypeScript Beta. Use when converting TEALScript contracts to Algorand TypeScript, upgrading Algorand TypeScript beta code to 1.0, user mentions migrating or upgrading to Algorand TypeScript / puya-ts / algo-ts 1.0, or user has TealScript code and wants to modernize it.
Create React frontends for Algorand dApps with wallet integration. Use when creating React frontends that interact with smart contracts, setting up wallet connections (Pera, Defly, Exodus), integrating typed app clients with wallet signers, or building dApp UIs that call contract methods. Strong triggers include "create a frontend for my contract", "add wallet connection to my React app", "how do I call my contract from the frontend?", "set up use-wallet with my typed client", "connect Pera wallet to my dApp", "algorand.setSigner".
Syntax rules and patterns for Algorand TypeScript (PuyaTs) smart contracts. Use when writing TypeScript contract code, encountering Puya compiler errors, asking about AVM types or value semantics, needing guidance on storage patterns (GlobalState, BoxMap), or asking about clone(), arrays, or inner transactions. Strong triggers include "Puya compiler error", "How do I use uint64?", "What is clone() for?", "BoxMap not working", "AVM type error", "GlobalState not updating".
Build Algorand smart contracts using Algorand TypeScript (PuyaTs) or Algorand Python (PuyaPy). Use when creating new smart contracts from scratch, adding features or methods to existing contracts, understanding Algorand contract development patterns, or getting guidance on contract architecture. Strong triggers include "create a smart contract", "write a contract that...", "build a voting contract", "implement an NFT contract", "add a method to the contract".
Deploy and interact with Algorand smart contracts using AlgoKit CLI and generated TypeScript clients. Use when deploying contracts to localnet/testnet/mainnet, calling contract methods, reading global/local/box state, opting in or closing out of applications, or writing interaction scripts. Strong triggers include "deploy the contract", "call the increment method", "read the contract state", "opt into the app", "write a script to interact", "getTypedAppClientById".
Bootstraps production-ready AlgoKit projects for Algorand dApps and smart contracts. Use when initializing new Algorand smart contract projects, setting up development environments from scratch, or scaffolding dApps with pre-configured tooling. Strong triggers include "create a new project", "initialize a new Algorand app", "start a new smart contract", "set up AlgoKit", "scaffold a dApp", "algokit init".
Implement Algorand ARC standards in smart contracts and clients. Use when needing to understand ARC-4 ABI encoding or method signatures, working with application specifications (ARC-32 or ARC-56), calling ARC-4 methods from contracts or clients, encountering ABI encoding/decoding issues, or generating typed clients from app specs. Strong triggers include "What is ARC-4?", "How do I encode ABI arguments?", "What's the difference between ARC-32 and ARC-56?", "method selector not matching", "application specification", "arc56.json".
Search GitHub for Algorand smart contract examples and patterns. Use when finding example implementations of specific patterns (BoxMap, inner transactions), looking up contract feature usage, discovering Algorand repositories, or retrieving files from algorandfoundation repos. Strong triggers include "find an example of...", "show me how to use BoxMap", "search for voting contract examples", "get the code from puya-ts examples", "find Algorand NFT repositories".
