<p><code>resolc</code> is a Solidity <code>v0.8</code> compiler for <a href="https://docs.polkadot.com/develop/smart-contracts/overview/#native-smart-contracts">Polkadot <code>native</code> smart contracts</a>. Solidity compiled with <code>resolc</code> executes orders of magnitude faster than the EVM. <code>resolc</code> also supports almost all Solidity <code>v0.8</code> features including inline assembly, offering a high level of comptability with the Ethereum Solidity reference implementation.</p>
<p><code>resolc</code> is a Solidity <code>v0.8</code> compiler for <a href="https://docs.polkadot.com/develop/smart-contracts/overview/#native-smart-contracts">Polkadot <code>native</code> smart contracts</a>. Solidity compiled with <code>resolc</code> targets PolaVM (PVM). Thanks to additional compiler optimizations and the PVM JIT, contract code can execute much faster than the EVM equivalent. <code>resolc</code> supports almost all Solidity <code>v0.8</code> features including inline assembly, offering a high level of comptability with the Ethereum Solidity reference implementation.</p>
<h2 id="revive-vs-resolc-nomenclature"><a class="header" href="#revive-vs-resolc-nomenclature"><code>revive</code> vs. <code>resolc</code> nomenclature</a></h2>
<p><code>revive</code> is the name of the overarching “Solidity to PolkaVM” compiler project, which contains multiple components (for example the Yul parser, the code generation library, the <code>resolc</code> executable itself, and many more things).</p>
<p><code>resolc</code> is the name of the compiler driver executable, combining many <code>revive</code> components in a single and easy to use binary application.</p>
