Solidity is a statically-typed, contract-oriented high-level programming language for writing smart contracts that run on the Ethereum Virtual Machine. The repository contains the reference compiler (solc), also available as a JavaScript build (solc-js) via npm.

Use cases

  • write smart contracts for ethereum
  • compile solidity to evm bytecode
  • create erc-20 tokens
  • build decentralized applications
  • implement voting or auction contracts
  • develop multi-signature wallets

When to choose

  • you are developing smart contracts for Ethereum or EVM-compatible chains
  • you need the official, up-to-date Solidity compiler with the latest features and security fixes
  • you want a mature language with extensive documentation and community tooling like Remix

When to avoid

  • you target non-EVM blockchains such as Solana or Move-based chains
  • you need long-term compiler stability, since 0.x versioning means regular breaking changes
  • you only need to audit or analyze existing contracts rather than write and compile new ones
