View source of deployed Ethereum smart contracts in VS Code

Comfortably browse contracts verified on etherscan

While browsing smart contract code on Etherscan just change URL from .io to deth.net. This will open Visual Studio Code instance and fetch the verified code using Etherscan API.

• frictionless - just tweak URL while browsing etherscan .io -> deth.net
• proxy support - automatically follows proxies and displays implementation source code
• multichain - supports many etherscan instances (testnets, L2s, L1s) (COMING SOON)

Browsing contracts directly on etherscan sucks! Browsing multi-file contracts on etherscan sucks even more. Limited search, weird syntax highlighting, and many, many more. Finally, it's often impossible to just git clone repository and browse source code locally because it's hard to find the exact commit that matches onchain code.

Ethereum Code Viewer was born out of frustration, and it's here to fix all of these issues. In addition, it improves the experience by automatically following the implementation of proxies and so on.

The repository contains two packages, ethereum-viewer extension and the VSCode compilation meant for hosting it online.

All packages (currently one) except of @dethcrypto/ethereum-viewer-vscode-host located in packages/vscode-host are managed by pnpm. As VSCode depends on Yarn, our vscode-host also needs Yarn.

You need to create dummy certs using mkcert:

cd ./certs
mkcert localhost
mkcert -install

• pnpm install - Installs dependencies for the workspace, ethereum-viewer extension, and triggers yarn install for vscode-host through the postinstall script.

• pnpm build - Builds all packages.

• pnpm watch - Starts webpack for ethereum-extension in watch mode.

• pnpm serve - Starts HTTP server with vscode-host.

• pnpm dev - Copies ethereum-extension and serves vscode-host. Run alongside pnpm watch.

Ethereum Code Viewer is a VSCode Web Extension using FileSystemProvider API to show sources of deployed Ethereum smart contracts. The following links might be provide some insight, if you're not familiar with some of the aforementioned terms.
