Practical overview
When it fits
Use it when building a code-based dApp frontend and Moralis-powered blockchain data components are a useful starting point. Wallet connectivity is needed for authentication, while the documented data pages do not require an active provider.
Who it is for
- Developers building TypeScript and Next.js dApp interfaces.
- Teams that want ready-made components for displaying token and NFT balances, transfers or transactions.
- Builders creating EVM or Moralis-supported Solana applications.
Documented uses
- Start a blockchain frontend from an existing Next.js structure.
- Show NFT and ERC-20 balances using Moralis data.
- Present ERC-20 transfers, NFT transfers and transaction histories.
- Add wallet-based authentication while keeping data pages usable without an active provider.
Requirements & limits
The repository is public and declares the MIT license. Its quick-start requires a Moralis API key and environment values for the app URL and authentication secret.
- The starter uses Next.js, TypeScript and Moralis; builders should be comfortable configuring and extending a codebase.
- The included data components cover balances, transfers and transactions, rather than a complete application specification.
- Network support for data calls depends on Moralis; consult its supported-chains documentation.
- A wallet or web3 provider is needed for authentication, but not for the documented data pages.
Check current requirements in the official documentation. Source-based guidance does not mean OpenViST has run or independently tested this project.
Set up the starter and configure its environment
Prepare the Next.js project with the Moralis and authentication environment values required by the quick-start instructions.
Before you start
- Git
- Yarn
- A Moralis Web3 API key
- An app URL for NEXTAUTH_URL
- A value for NEXTAUTH_SECRET
Steps
Clone or fork the repository.
Change into the project directory and install dependencies with yarn install.
Rename .env.local.example to .env.local.
Set MORALIS_API_KEY, NEXTAUTH_URL and NEXTAUTH_SECRET in the environment file.
Start the app with yarn start.
Expected outcome
The starter is configured with its documented environment values and the README's start command.
Guide limitations
- The guide covers the repository's quick-start setup, not customized deployment or application changes.
- An active web3 provider or wallet is required when using authentication; the documented data pages do not require one.
