Getting Started

Getting Started with GearUp Studio

A quick guide for individuals looking to build smart contracts without writing code.

GearUp Studio is your no-code platform to build, test, and deploy smart contracts using a visual block-based interface. Whether you're creating a token, automating liquidity, or experimenting with DeFi logic, this guide will walk you through your first steps inside the Studio.


🛠️ What You’ll Need

Before you start building, make sure you have:

  • A browser with GearUp Studio access (Chrome, Brave, Firefox recommended)

  • A Web3-compatible wallet (MetaMask, WalletConnect, etc.)

  • Optional: Testnet ETH (Linea Sepolia) for trial deployments


🔐 Connect Your Wallet

  1. Visit the GearUp Studio interface

  2. Click “Connect Wallet” in the top right corner

  3. Choose your wallet provider

  4. Approve connection (GearUp only views your public address)

Your wallet is used for saving your templates, testing contracts, and deploying to the blockchain.


📦 Choose or Create a Template

You can either:

  • Use a prebuilt template from the Studio Library (like “Taxable Token” or “Time-Locked Vault”), or

  • Start from scratch using blocks in the contract builder

Templates come with preset logic and customizable inputs.


🧱 Build Your Contract

Drag and drop blocks from the sidebar into the workspace. Block types include:

  • Logic blocks (e.g. Mint, Transfer, Taxation)

  • Triggers (e.g. Time, Wallet, Market Cap)

  • Actions (e.g. Add Liquidity, Call Function)

  • Conditions (e.g. If/Then, Require)

Click any block to open its parameters and description.


🧪 Test Before You Deploy

Once your contract is assembled:

  1. Click “Test”

  2. Choose a testnet (Linea Sepolia recommended)

  3. Simulate function calls with sample wallets and token flows

  4. View execution logs, gas usage, and potential warnings


🚀 Deploy Your Contract

When you're ready:

  1. Click “Deploy”

  2. Confirm details and approve via your wallet

  3. Contract will be published to your selected chain

Post-deployment, you can interact with your contract via the Studio dashboard.


🧠 Need Help?

Scrappy AI is available in the bottom-right of the Studio — just click and ask:

  • “What does this block do?”

  • “Why won’t my contract compile?”

  • “What logic should I add for DCA?”

With GearUp Studio, anyone can create and control their own DeFi logic — safely, visually, and without code.

Welcome to smart contracts, simplified. ✨
