After successfully installing substrate-contracts-node,
you can start a local development chain by running:
substrate-contracts-node --dev --tmp
You should start seeing blocks being produced by your node in your terminal.
You can interact with your node using the hosted version of Canvas UI at:
https://paritytech.github.io/canvas-ui
Now configure the UI to connect to the locally running node:
- Click on the dropdown selector at bottom left corner.
- Choose the Local Node.
