Aztec Node
The Aztec Node implements a sequencer node in the network, and is currently meant to be used for local development and testing. The Node is the entrypoint for creating and starting a new Sequencer client with default components (a local P2P client, an in-memory merkle tree database, etc).
The Node also exposes methods that are consumed by the client (see pxe), such as querying network info or submitting a transaction. As Aztec evolves beyond local development, these methods will be accessible via a JSON-RPC API or similar. Refer to the end-to-end tests for examples on how to initialize an Aztec Node and use it along with a Private eXecution Environment (PXE).
Development
Start by running bootstrap.sh in the project root.
To build the package, run yarn build in the root.
To watch for changes, yarn build:dev.
To run the tests, execute yarn test.
