sudo apt install -y curl git build-essential pkg-config libssl-dev

2️⃣ Install GitHub Repo

Go to GitHub → create a public repo named:

work-ethic-gauntlet

#Clone it into WSL:

git clone https://github.com/<your-username>/work-ethic-gauntlet.git
cd work-ethic-gauntlet

3️⃣ Add Base Files

#Inside the repo, create the starter files:

echo "# Work Ethic Gauntlet" > README.md
echo "# Daily Log" > DAILY.md
echo "# Runbook (setup + troubleshooting)" > Runbook.md

#Then push them:

git add .
git commit -m "Initial commit with base files"
git push origin main

4️⃣ Install Node.js

#Recommended: use nvm (Node Version Manager).

# install nvm
curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.39.7/install.sh | bash

7️⃣ Fork a Minimal Foundry Template

On GitHub:

Find a minimal Foundry template (example: foundry-rs/forge-template).

Fork it.

Clone it inside your repo (or copy its contents into your work-ethic-gauntlet repo).

8️⃣ Build & Test

Run:

foundryup
forge build
forge test -vv


If everything works, you’ll see green ✅.

1. Fork a template on GitHub (web UI)

Go to GitHub and search “foundry template” or “foundry minimal template”.

Pick one that looks small and has foundry.toml, src/, and test/.

Click Fork (top-right). That puts the fork in your account.

2. Clone your fork into WSL and test it

# clone the fork 
cd ~/projects
git clone https://github.com/salmaansaeed94/hardhat-foundry-template
cd hardhat-foundry-template/

# ensure Foundry is up-to-date
foundryup

# fetch any submodule-based libs (common)
git submodule update --init --recursive || true

# try installing dependencies (if repo expects it)
forge install || true
# If it gives warning like this:
forge install || true
Warning: Found unknown config section in foundry.toml: [default]
