This pull request removes the Polkadot and Kusama native runtime from the polkadot node. This brings some implications with it: There are no more kusama/polkadot-dev chain specs available. We will need to write some tooling in the fellowship repo to provide them easily. The try-runtime job for polkadot & kusama is not available anymore as we don't have the dev chain specs anymore. Certain benchmarking commands will also not work until we migrate them to use a runtime api. Some crates in utils are still depending on the polkadot/kusama native runtime that will also need to be fixed. Port of: https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot/pull/7467
NOTE: We have recently made significant changes to our repository structure. In order to streamline our development process and foster better contributions, we have merged three separate repositories Cumulus, Substrate and Polkadot into this repository. Read more about the changes here.
Polkadot SDK
The Polkadot SDK repository provides all the resources needed to start building on the Polkadot network, a multi-chain blockchain platform that enables different blockchains to interoperate and share information in a secure and scalable way. The Polkadot SDK comprises three main pieces of software:
Polkadot
Implementation of a node for the https://polkadot.network in Rust, using the Substrate framework. This directory
currently contains runtimes for the Polkadot, Kusama, Westend, and Rococo networks. In the future, these will be
relocated to the runtimes repository.
Substrate
Substrate is the primary blockchain SDK used by developers to create the parachains that make up the Polkadot network. Additionally, it allows for the development of self-sovereign blockchains that operate completely independently of Polkadot.
Cumulus
Cumulus is a set of tools for writing Substrate-based Polkadot parachains.
