# CircomJS

CircomJS is a javascript framework for automating and easing workflow around developing in the [Circom](https://docs.circom.io) DSL.

A Circom project can be divided into the following phases:

* Writing circuits.
* Building the circuits.
* Consuming the builds.

The below diagram captures the workflow of a basic Circom project.

Circom JS aims to ease the process around `Building` your circuits and `Consuming` the builds.&#x20;

You can think of it as [hardhat](https://hardhat.org/docs) + [ethers](https://docs.ethers.org/v5/) for Circom.
