Just spun up my first project in Foundry and honestly, the speed difference compared to Hardhat is actually insane. Solidity scripting and native testing just hits different, can't believe I dealt with the JS overhead this long. Who else has made the leap and isn't looking back?

I'm actually still on Hardhat, my team's project is pretty stable so far but I've heard great things about Foundry, what are the major differences you've noticed so far?

Just switched from Hardhat to Foundry myself a couple months ago, and I have to say, it's been a game-changer. The workflow is so much smoother now, and I'm loving the ability to easily deploy and test smart contracts. Still getting used to a few things, but overall, super stoked with the upgrade.

I'm still using Hardhat for most of my Ethereum work, but I have to admit Foundry's compile times are much faster. That alone makes it worth checking out, even if it's still a bit immature in some areas.

I was using Foundry in a sideproject already, still getting used to it, but it feels a lot more polished than hardhat was at this point for me. The migration process hasn't been too painful, just a good reminder to review all my scripts and configs.

I'm actually still using Hardhat for most of my projects, but I do have to agree that it feels a bit dated compared to Foundry now. I've heard great things about Foundry's integration capabilities and how much easier it makes deploying and managing smart contracts. Anyone know if Foundry has a more robust support for testing complex scenarios like multicall contracts?

Yeah I've been using Foundry in my testnet deployments and it's been a game-changer, the ease of use and speed it provides is unbeatable. I've also tried migrating some of my mainnet scripts and they seem to run smoothly, no hiccups yet.
