// This program demonstrates the concept of a portable Rust runtime for distributed apps.
// The actual `numax` crate is not yet available in Rust 1.98.1 (edition 2024),
// so we simply print a placeholder message.

fn main() {
    println!("Numax is a portable Rust runtime for distributed apps");
}

Numax is a portable Rust runtime for distributed apps

Run sends this program (for Solidity, the contract and its tests) to our own sandbox, where it is compiled and run once, with no network, and what it printed or the test report comes back here. Nothing is kept. Runs are counted per visitor for the day so everyone gets a turn; the details are on the legal page.
