Document Generating and Using Contract Bindings and SDKs

[codebestia]

Document how client developers get typed bindings for the contracts, how to keep them in sync with the deployed WASM, and how the generated types map to the data types reference.

Proposed steps:

• Create docs/guides/contract-bindings.md.
• Document generating TypeScript bindings from a built WASM or a deployed contract ID with the Stellar CLI, including the exact commands and output layout.
• Document how workspace types (i128, BytesN<32>, Vec<T>, custom structs and enums) surface in the generated client, with conversion pitfalls (bigint handling, address formats, enum representation).
• Provide a minimal working client example: instantiate, read (get_invoice), and write (pay_invoice) with signing.
• Document versioning: regenerating bindings after an interface change, and how to detect a mismatch between client bindings and the deployed contract.
• Document network configuration for local, testnet, and mainnet clients.

Acceptance criteria:

• docs/guides/contract-bindings.md exists.
• Binding generation commands are verified against the current toolchain.
• Type mapping pitfalls are documented with examples.
• A minimal read-and-write client example is included and runnable.

Hey team, I would love to tackle this issue!

Execution Plan for Document Generating and Using Contract Bindings and SDKs:

• Smart Contract Architecture: Implement Document Generating and Using Contract Bindings and SDKs with explicit auth checks (require_auth), clean DataKey storage, and zero-overflow arithmetic.
• Exhaustive Testing: Add unit tests asserting both happy-path states and unauthorized reverts with exact ContractError variants.
• Green CI: Verify zero clippy warnings and 100% test coverage locally before opening the PR.

Why assign me?

• Proven Proof-of-Work: Setup contribution codebase #1 contributor on Mova Store (28 merged Web3 PRs) and official ElizaOS contributor.
• Fast Turnaround: Dedicated to shipping a tested, production-grade PR within 12–24 hours.
• Zero Maintainer Burden: Self-documenting code with green CI and tests included so you don't spend time debugging.

Happy to pick this up immediately—please assign to me!

Hi maintainers,

I can tackle Document Generating and Using Contract Bindings and SDKs. Proposed implementation roadmap:

• Analysis: Inspect current behavior and edge cases in ShadeProtocol/shade-stellar-contract
• Implementation: Implement Document Generating and Using Contract Bindings and SDKs with explicit require_auth checks, clean storage layouts, and robust Soroban contract logic.
• Testing: Add comprehensive unit tests verifying both happy-path invocations and unauthorized revert scenarios.
• PR: Atomic commit with clean git hygiene and passing CI

Excited to work on this—please assign to me and I'll submit a clean PR shortly!
