Pull Request Overview

This PR adds comprehensive deployment documentation for basic smart contracts to Polkadot Hub, splitting the content into two separate guides: one for PolkaVM (PVM) deployment and one for standard EVM deployment. Each guide covers four deployment methods: Ethers.js, Remix IDE, Hardhat, and Foundry.

Key Changes:

• Created two new deployment guides with distinct tooling paths (PVM vs EVM)
• Removed the placeholder TODO file
• Updated navigation to reflect the new structure

Nice read. I see four tutorials in this deploy a basic contract tutorial:

• an Ethers.js tutorial,
• a Remix IDE tutorial,
• a Hardhat tutorial,
• and a Foundry tutorial

We can move forward as is, however it would be nice to circle back to this and split this up into separate sub-pages.

We are just grabbing the latest version?

[nhussein11]

same with hardhat

[brunopgalvao]

This install hardhat? If so, we are just grabbing the latest version?

[nhussein11]

Yes, this is a standard hardhat that is very stable so versioning should not be a problem

I only really reviewed the ethers.js guide and quickly looked at the other ones. My comments apply to all the guides, so please go back through and make the updates to those pages too. Thanks!

In smart-contracts/get-started.md we have a reference to [Deploy a Basic Contract](/smart-contracts/cookbook/smart-contracts/deploy-basic/), can you please update the link to point to the first guide in this section?

What do they get from doing this?
