EVMcrispr is a comprehensive tool designed to simplify interactions with smart contracts on EVM-compatible chains. It enables users to send transactions using intuitive, UNIX-like commands, allowing for the creation of complete scripts that perform multiple arbitrary actions from the injected wallet in the web browser. This makes it easier to write complex scripts for various day-to-day blockchain operations, such as creating efficient DAO votes, launching and managing DAO configurations, performing DeFi strategies, running simulations on drafted on-chain actions, and creating, sending, and managing tokens.

EVMcrispr effectively lowers the technical barriers for web3 users to engage in and execute complex tasks using smart contracts. The tool's domain-specific language is useful for expressing and transforming transaction data. It has been adopted by organizations like Curve, Aragon, NFTX, 1Hive, Giveth, TECommons, BrightId, and Agave to conduct intricate votes within their Decentralized Autonomous Organizations (DAOs).

The tool boasts a terminal-like interface, complemented by clear documentation and numerous examples, making it easy for users to start. It eliminates the need for a customized frontend to interact with Ethereum, as users can simply write and share scripts with others for execution. It currently supports up to 300 EVM-compatible chains, including all the Arbitrum chains.

Roadmap

EVMcrispr is committed to continuous improvement and expansion of its features. The following next steps have been identified to enhance the tool and user experience:

1. Formal Language Specification: EVMcrispr is still alpha and lacks some standardization. We will develop a well-defined and comprehensive formal language specification to provide clear guidance for users and facilitate future improvements. This specification will also benefit LLMs in programming transactions properly.
2. Software Refactor: Based on the work completed in the previous milestone, we will rewrite the core and modules of EVMcrispr to ensure compliance with the new specification.
3. Add Advanced Features: Extend EVMcrispr to include on-chain event handling for tracking smart contract events, better support for OpenZeppelin contracts (especially for creating votes on Tally-compatible DAOs), and integrating ENS domains as first-class citizens of the language.
4. Documentation: Develop comprehensive documentation for EVMcrispr, covering all aspects of the tool, including the new features and improvements. This documentation will be crucial for users to understand and utilize the tool effectively.
5. Improved ENS support: EVMcrispr will make ENS names first-class citizens of the domain-specific language. The tool already supports the namehash function, and the contenthash function will be added to enhance ENS-related capabilities.

By focusing on these key areas, EVMcrispr aims to become an even more versatile and valuable tool for interacting with smart contracts on EVM-compatible chains.
