Build with zcash.js

A practical TypeScript guide to chain queries, local wallets, receiving, sending, signing, and payment recovery.

Start with installation and a first request, then follow the developer guide. For the complete wallet journey, read the walkthrough. The API reference maps the implemented exports to examples.

@zcashlabs/zcash.js@0.1.1 is an experimental release with bundled codec capsules, a baseline wallet engine, workers, and local Sapling proving assets. Wallet execution loads the bundled engine automatically; proving assets load only when needed. Applications supply endpoints and storage. No separate runtime package, Rust installation, or post-install asset download is required.

Browser bundlers emit lazy WASM, worker, and proving files alongside the application; deploy those files too. Persistent Node wallets currently require Linux and flock. Historical wallet-database migration and the complete live-browser send/receive round trip are not yet qualified. See wallet setup and platform limits.
