🎮 Algorand Coding Challenge: Fix The Bug 🐞!

🚩 Challenge 3: My AppClient is Broken! 😭

I want to instantiate an app client to deploy and interact with my smart contract but it's not working!!

This project includes a simple helloWorld smart contract written with TEALScript inside of ./contract/helloWorld.algo.ts file. The smart contract is already compiled with artifacts generated inside of the ./contracts/artifacts folder and the application typed client inside of ./contracts/clients/helloWorldClient.ts file.

Artifacts: autogenerated assets (TEAL contract code, ABI spec, source mapping) for your smart contract. Application Typed Client: autogenerated client used to easily deploy / interact with Algorand smart contract.

The index.ts file in the root level is a script that deploys the helloWorld smart contract and calls the helloWorld method.

However, if you try to run the index.ts file after going into the challenge directory, opening Docker Desktop, and then running:

algokit bootstrap all
algokit localnet start
npm run start

it will fail.

Find out what is wrong and fix the bug.
