FAQ
What is a fork in cryptocurrency?
A fork project is a new code based on an existing source code of a different project. Usually, developers add some changes to various processes. Thus, the project fork may end up very different from the original one.What is a fork checker and why do I need it?
A fork checker does exactly what it says: checks a project fork. It’s usually used on two occasions.
The first one is evaluating a code: if you’re dealing with a fork, you can see what changes the project has made to the original code.
The other one is reviewing and comparing all dependencies. Usually, these tasks have to be done manually and it’s time-consuming.
With this feature, the Builder automatically checks whether there’s been a backdoor added to the code.How does the Fork Checker work?
Fork Checker takes the code provided in a .sol file or via the address and compares it to its database which includes OpenZeppelin and others. The feature shows the differences between the codes.Is Fork Checker free to use?
Yes, Fork Checker is a free tool and we would be grateful if you spread the word about it and share it with the crypto community.Why do developers fork other projects?
Developers don’t always launch their projects on all networks, which results in enthusiasts wanting to either add a useful project to a chain or add some changes to the source code and make the project more niche. Forking a project is common practice in the industry.What should I know about code forks?
When dealing with a fork, it’s crucial to remember that the errors and vulnerabilities from the original project can be transferred onto the fork. So it’s imperative to carefully review the differences, which can be done with the help of Fork Checker.
It’s also very important to audit the final project and HashEx is your best defense against vulnerabilities.
