Practical overview

When it fits

Use it as a code starting point when building a Solana dApp and adapting its wallet, transaction, data-retrieval or styling examples.

Who it is for

  • Developers building a web application that connects to Solana wallets.
  • Teams seeking examples for SOL or SPL-token transfers and wallet NFT data.

Documented uses

  • Connect supported wallets and validate wallet ownership with a signature.
  • Create and submit SOL or SPL-token transfers, then check transaction success.
  • Retrieve NFT data for a wallet through the Helius API.
  • Customize the dApp's styling and light or dark theme.
Before you choose

Requirements & limits

The repository is public and MIT-licensed. The documented local setup requires a Helius API key for wallet details.

  • Phantom and Backpack are included by default; other wallets supported by wallet-adapter can be configured.
  • Transaction signing occurs client-side, while the README describes other actions as running in the backend.
  • The documented stack includes Next.js, TypeScript, Solana libraries, Tailwind CSS, daisyUI and react-hot-toast.

Check current requirements in the official documentation. Source-based guidance does not mean OpenViST has run or independently tested this project.

Source-based practical guide

Set up the starter kit locally

Create a local copy of the template and configure its Helius key for wallet-data retrieval.

Before you start

  • A Helius API key
  • A local development environment capable of running the documented npx and npm commands

Steps

  1. Create a project from the repository using the documented npx create-next-app command, or use the GitHub template or fork option.

  2. Add a .env.local file containing HELIUS_API_KEY=.

  3. Run npm run dev to start the development server.

Expected outcome

A local development instance of the starter kit configured with a Helius API key.

Guide limitations

  • The guide covers local setup and starting the development server, not deployment.
  • The Helius key is identified as necessary for fetching wallet details.
