🛠️ Development Setup

The project uses git submodules and supports multiple package managers (npm, yarn, pnpm, bun) with Turbopack for faster development.

This is essentially a comprehensive DeFi application that brings traditional options trading to the Stellar ecosystem, making it accessible to both retail and institutional users while maintaining the security and efficiency of blockchain technology.

Getting Started

First, run the development server:

git submodule init
git submodule update --remote --recursive

npm run dev
# or
yarn dev
# or
pnpm dev
# or
bun dev

Open http://localhost:3000 with your browser to see the result.

You can start editing the page by modifying app/page.tsx. The page auto-updates as you edit the file.

This project uses next/font to automatically optimize and load Geist, a new font family for Vercel.
