Practical overview
When it fits
Use it when a JavaScript or TypeScript project needs a documented SDK workspace for Solana API access or wallet integration.
Who it is for
- JavaScript and TypeScript developers working with Solana
- Teams building browser-based Solana wallet and transaction interfaces
- Developers creating server-side Solana services
- Developers building command-line tools that call Solana APIs
Documented uses
- Connect a web application to a Solana wallet
- Build Solana transaction or account-management services
- Call Solana APIs from JavaScript or TypeScript
- Add a reusable Solana wallet-adapter integration
Requirements & limits
The repository is publicly accessible, identified as open source and licensed under MIT. No account, pricing or service-availability requirements are documented here.
- The workspace uses TypeScript and includes JavaScript-facing Solana tooling.
- It supports Web, Server and CLI development contexts.
- The repository requires Just, Node.js 20.19 or later, and pnpm 10 for the documented development setup.
- New development is on v3-plus; the maintenance/v1.x branch is for legacy version 1.x and receives critical fixes only.
- The workspace includes both the core Solana JavaScript API and a wallet-adapter package.
Check current requirements in the official documentation. Source-based guidance does not mean OpenViST has run or independently tested this project.
