• In a second terminal window run:

yarn fork

This branch uses a local fork of mainnet, which is easy to do with Hardhat (see here to learn more). The template configuration uses an Infura node, however this is not a full archive node, so it will only work for an hour or so. To get a long-lasting fork...

• Go to alchemyapi.io and get an API key for mainnet
• Replace the Infura URL with an Alchemy URL with your API key (i.e. https://eth-mainnet.alchemyapi.io/v2/<API_KEY_HERE>) into the fork script on line 28 of /packages/hardhat/package.json

📱 Open http://localhost:3000 to see the app

• Send your burner wallet some ETH using the faucet
• Swap some ETH for DAI
• Go to "Lend" and Deposit DAI into Aave
• Borrow whatever assets you want!

Notes:

• The on-chain requests are quite heavy for this branch, so it can sometimes take the mainnet fork a little while to get going - you may need to refresh several times before everything is cached.
