Create Kadena App

The create-kadena-app CLI tool enables you to quickly start a new application that has Kadena Blockchain integration set up and ready to go. The application supports Typescript and makes use of @kadena/client and @kadena/pactjs-cli.

The application is backed by a smart contract written in Pact that is included for convenience and also deployed on the Kadena Blockchain, so you have a working application from the start.

The two most common blockchain use cases are covered in this starter app:

  • Reading a message from the chain (requires no transaction).
  • Writing a message on the chain, which includes signing and sending a transaction on chain and waiting for it to be mined.

Chainweaver is used for signing transactions, since it's the Official Kadena wallet for advanced blockchain usage and smart contract development.
