Name your smart contracts

Technical Details

Contracts should be assigned ENS names during or after deployment. For deployment-time naming, see the Enscribe documentation which goes into greater detail on the process. For post-deployment naming we recommend using the Enscribe App. Note that setting a primary name (reverse resolution) requires the contract to implement Ownable. Contracts without Ownable can still have forward resolution configured (name → address) but cannot set a reverse record (address → name).

Additional Details

Assigning ENS names to contracts gives users confidence they're interacting with the correct contract. This is particularly valuable for security, as users can confirm uniswap.eth instead of validating a long hexadecimal address. If you've deployed contracts without Ownable, you can still improve UX by configuring forward resolution, though full naming (with reverse resolution) provides the best user experience.
