# Precompiles

A precompile is a common functionality used in smart contracts that has been compiled in advance, so Ethereum nodes can run it more efficiently. From a contract's perspective, this is a single command like an opcode. The Frontier EVM used on Uomi network provides several useful precompiled contracts. These contracts are implemented in our ecosystem as a native implementation. The precompiled contracts `0x01` through `0x08` are the same as those in Ethereum (see list below). Additionally, Uomi implements precompiled contracts that support new Uomi features.

The interface descriptions for these precompiles can be found in the `precompiles` folder:  [Uomi repo](https://github.com/Uomi-network/uomi-node). The Addresses can be checked in the [Uomi repo](https://github.com/Uomi-network/uomi-node) for each runtime in `precompile.rs` files.

## Usage example

Here we'll demonstrate a simple smart contract that can interact with Sr25519 precompile

```solidity
// SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-3.0-or-later
pragma solidity ^0.8.0;

contract Sr25519Caller {
    address constant precompileAddress = 0x0000000000000000000000000000000000005002;

    function verify(bytes32 publicKey, bytes memory signature, bytes memory message) public view returns (bool) {
        (bool success, bytes memory result) = precompileAddress.staticcall(
            abi.encodeWithSignature("verify(bytes32,bytes,bytes)", publicKey, signature, message)
        );
        require(success, "Failed to call precompile");
        return abi.decode(result, (bool));
    }
}
```
