Building on LitVM LiteForge testnet
For teams shipping on the rollupLitVM runs a dedicated builders portal — the official starting point for teams deploying to the network.
LiteForge runs the Shanghai EVM, so existing Solidity, Foundry and Hardhat workflows carry over. A few Arbitrum Orbit behaviours differ from Ethereum mainnet though, and they are the kind that pass tests and fail in production:
block.numberreturns an approximate Ethereum L1 block, not the LitVM blockblockhash()is not cryptographically secure — use an oracle for randomnessblock.difficultyandblock.prevrandaoboth return the constant 1- Blocks are produced on demand, not at a fixed interval; the effective gas cap is 32M
The docs cover each in full, including address aliasing for cross-chain messages.
