This is the main code repository for all Joystream software. In this mono-repo you will find all the software required to run a Joystream network: The Joystream full node, runtime and all reusable substrate runtime modules that make up the Joystream runtime. In addition to all front-end apps and infrastructure servers necessary for operating the network.
The Joystream network builds on the substrate blockchain framework, and adds additional functionality to support the various roles that can be entered into on the platform.
For best results use GNU/Linux with minimum glibc version 2.28 for nodejs v18 to work. So Ubuntu 20.04 or newer.
You can check your version of glibc with ldd --version
The following tools are required for building, testing and contributing to this repo:
- Rust toolchain - required
- nodejs >= v14.18.x - required (However volta will try to use v18.6)
- yarn classic package manager v1.22.x- required
- docker and docker-compose v2.20.x or higher - required
- ansible - optional
If you use VSCode as your code editor we recommend using the workspace settings for recommend eslint plugin to function properly.
After cloning the repo run the following to get started:
./setup.shInstall development tools without Volta version manager.
./setup.sh --no-voltaModify the root package.json and change volta section to use node version 16.20.1 instead of 18.6.0
"volta": {
"node": "16.20.1",
"yarn": "1.22.19"

# Run tests
yarn testWe have lots of good first issues open to help you get started on contributing code. If you are not a developer you can still make valuable contributions by testing our software and providing feedback and opening new issues.
A description of our branching model will help you to understand where work on different software components happens, and consequently where to direct your pull requests.
We rely on eslint for code quality of our JavaScript and TypeScript code and prettier for consistent formatting. For Rust we rely on rustfmt and clippy.
The husky npm package is used to manage the project git-hooks. This is automatically installed and setup when you run yarn install.
When you git commit and git push some scripts will run automatically to ensure committed code passes lint, tests, and code-style checks.
During a rebase/merge you may want to skip all hooks, you can use HUSKY_SKIP_HOOKS environment variable.
HUSKY_SKIP_HOOKS=1 git rebase ...
If you use RLS extension in your IDE, start your editor with the BUILD_DUMMY_WASM_BINARY=1 environment set to workaround a build issue that occurs in the IDE only.
BUILD_DUMMY_WASM_BINARY=1 code ./joystream
