gnoland

gnoland

gnoland is the production binary powering the gno.land chain. You might want to run it if you're debugging low-level behavior or building advanced tooling like indexers.

For local development, we recommend using gnodev — a developer-optimized node that makes writing and testing Gno contracts much easier.

Note: The gnoland binary is specific to the gno.land chain. Other chains in the Gno ecosystem will use different binaries tailored to their own configurations and goals.

Getting Started

To run your own local gno.land node, follow this guide from the gnops blog:

Install gnoland

git clone git@github.com:gnolang/gno.git
cd gno/gno.land
make install.gnoland

Run gnoland

gnoland start -lazy

Once running, you can interact with it using:
