ZonerChapter 01 / 05

Introduction

What Zoner is and why Solidity developers get a familiar workflow.

What is Zoner?

Foundry for Logos. Same Solidity, same tools, one new network.

Zoner is a small command-line companion to Foundry. It takes a Foundry project from init to a running chain, and to blocks published on Logos, in a few commands.

          Zoner                       ← init, node, deploy, status, sync
            ↓
      Solizone EVM (REVM)             ← executes your Solidity
            ↓
   Logos Zone SDK + Logos Storage     ← ordering, finality, durable history

Zoner is an independent project and is not an official Logos project.

Why it exists

Logos gives builders a strong privacy and infrastructure stack. But most smart-contract developers already live in Solidity and Foundry, and a network that asks them to start over rarely gets built on.

Zoner removes that cost. It does not replace Foundry. It lets Foundry talk to Solizone EVM, an EVM execution layer whose blocks are published to Logos.

What you get

CommandWhat it does
zoner init [DIR]Creates a Foundry project already pointed at Solizone
zoner node [flags]Runs a local Solizone node
zoner deploy CONTRACTDeploys with forge create
zoner statusShows chain id, head block and Logos publication progress
zoner syncRebuilds the chain from Logos and verifies every block
zoner accountsLists the pre-funded development accounts

Everything else, such as forge build, forge test, cast call and cast send, is plain Foundry. It works because Solizone speaks standard Ethereum JSON-RPC.
