Hemis Core integration/staging repository
Hemis is an open source community-driven cryptocurrency, focused on five main aspects:
(1) Low environmental footprint and network participation equality: Through the use of a highly developed Proof of Stake protocol.
(2) Decentralized Governance System: A DAO built on top of the tier two Gamemasters network, enabling a monthly community treasury, proposals submission and decentralized voting.
(3) Fast Transactions: Through the use of fast block times and the tier two network, Hemis is committed to continue researching new and better instant transactions mechanisms.
(4) Ease of Use: Hemis is determined to offer the best possible graphical interface for a core node/wallet. A full featured graphical product for new and advanced users.

This script assumes you are running Hemis on a clean VPS. SSH into your VPS and run this command as root to install (or update to) the latest Hemis wallet for Linux:
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Hemis-Blockchain/Hemis/main/vps-install.sh && bash vps-install.shThe master branch is regularly built (see doc/build-*.md for instructions) and tested, but it is not guaranteed to be completely stable. Tags are created regularly from release branches to indicate new official, stable release versions of Hemis Core.
The contribution workflow is described in CONTRIBUTING.md and useful hints for developers can be found in doc/developer-notes.md.
Testing and code review is the bottleneck for development; we get more pull requests than we can review and test on short notice. Please be patient and help out by testing other people's pull requests, and remember this is a security-critical project where any mistake might cost people a lot of money.
Developers are strongly encouraged to write unit tests for new code, and to submit new unit tests for old code. Unit tests can be compiled and run (assuming they weren't disabled in configure) with: make check. Further details on running and extending unit tests can be found in /src/test/README.md.
There are also regression and integration tests, written in Python. These tests can be run (if the test dependencies are installed) with: test/functional/test_runner.py`
The CI (Continuous Integration) systems make sure that every pull request is built for Windows, Linux, and macOS, and that unit/sanity tests are run automatically.
Changes should be tested by somebody other than the developer who wrote the code. This is especially important for large or high-risk changes. It is useful to add a test plan to the pull request description if testing the changes is not straightforward.
Changes to translations as well as new translations can be submitted to Hemis Core's Transifex page.
Translations are periodically pulled from Transifex and merged into the git repository. See the translation process for details on how this works.
Important: We do not accept translation changes as GitHub pull requests because the next pull from Transifex would automatically overwrite them again.
