Conversation
Ethereum Waffle is effectively unmaintained (last release ~3 years ago) and has been superseded by Hardhat Chai Matchers and Foundry. Remove all four Waffle tutorials and their translations across 13 languages to avoid directing developers to a dead-end toolchain. Removed tutorials: - testing-erc-20-tokens-with-waffle - waffle-dynamic-mocking-and-testing-calls - waffle-say-hello-world-with-hardhat-and-ethers - waffle-test-simple-smart-contract Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com> Co-Authored-By: wackerow <54227730+wackerow@users.noreply.github.com>
