Truffle, the blockchain developer tools company,
announced that Microsoft is its preferred cloud and services partner. Microsoft also recently added a Truffle extension to Visual Studio Code, Microsoft’s popular software used by developers when writing code.
Truffle provides several features that aid developers when writing smart contracts for Ethereum. For example, it’s time-consuming to set up an Ethereum node to test a smart contract. So instead, Truffle provides Ganache, a private Ethereum blockchain which can be installed very quickly and easily. Truffle has been downloaded 2.7 million times with Ganache 1.6 million times and the desktop Ganache version had 100,000 unique users over the last year.
