  Slither is a static analysis framework designed to provide
  rich information about Ethereum smart contracts.

  It works by converting Solidity smart contracts into an
  intermediate representation called SlithIR.

  SlithIR uses Static Single Assignment (SSA) form and a
  reduced instruction set to ease implementation of analyses
  while preserving semantic information that would be lost
  in transforming Solidity to bytecode. 

  Slither allows for the application of commonly used
  program analysis techniques like dataflow and taint
  tracking.


  Our framework has four main use cases: 

  (1) automated detection of vulnerabilities,

  (2) automated detection of code optimization
  opportunities,

  (3) improvement of the user's understanding of the
  contracts, and

  (4) assistance with code review.
