Practical overview
When it fits
Use it at the start of a Solana dApp project when a scaffold with basic wallet and transaction features is useful.
Who it is for
- Developers beginning a Solana dApp project.
- React or Next.js developers who want a starter with common wallet interactions.
Documented uses
- Generate a React or Next.js Solana application scaffold.
- Start the generated app's local development server.
- Begin an application with wallet connection, balance retrieval and transaction-sending functionality.
Requirements & limits
The repository specifies an Apache-2.0 license.
- The documented React setup uses npx to create a project and yarn to start it.
- The README also documents cloning the repository, installing dependencies with Yarn or npm, and starting a local server at localhost:1234.
- The project lists React and Next.js starter paths; the README directs readers to separate Next.js support documentation.
Check current requirements in the official documentation. Source-based guidance does not mean OpenViST has run or independently tested this project.
Create and start a React starter
Generate a React project with Solana dApp basics and start its local development server.
Before you start
- A command-line environment that can run the documented npx and yarn commands.
Steps
Run the command below.
npx solana-base-app react my-appChange into the
my-appdirectory.Run
yarn start.
Expected outcome
A base app is created in the current directory and its development server starts.
Guide limitations
- The instructions cover local development, not wallet configuration or transaction execution.
Compare options for Wallet connections
These projects document a common task and share a project role. This is a source-based comparison, not an execution benchmark or a guarantee of interchangeability.
