Fe is a Rust-like, statically typed language for the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM), with explicit effects, message-passing contracts, and an integrated toolchain.

Status: Fe 26.x is not production-ready. See the Fe 26 release announcement for context.

Run the workspace tests:

cargo test --workspace

For optimized tests with debug assertions enabled, use cargo nextest run --cargo-profile test-release --workspace. CI and make test use this optimized profile too.

Snapshot tests use insta:

cargo insta review
cargo insta accept --workspace

Non-trivial language or architecture changes should start as a discussion on GitHub or Zulip. For bug fixes and small improvements, a PR against master is fine.
