While our core focus so far has been the consensus layer, we are now devoting significant resources to our execution layer client.
|
|
|
|
## Quickstart
|
|
|
|
To run Nimbus' [execution layer client](https://github.com/status-im/nimbus-eth1), first [install the prerequisites](https://github.com/status-im/nimbus-eth1#prerequisites).
|
|
|
|
Then run the following commands:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
git clone https://github.com/status-im/nimbus-eth1
|
|
cd nimbus-eth1
|
|
make update
|
|
|
|
# >>> WINDOWS ONLY <<<
|
|
make fetch-dlls # WINDOWS ONLY
|
|
# >>> WINDOWS ONLY <<<
|
|
|
|
make nimbus
|
|
./build/nimbus
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Nimbus will now run and attempt to synchronize with the Ethereum blockchain.
