What’s the best way to start to create a mobile application using the aeternity blockchain? is there any tutorial ready? Any hint is appreciated :slight_smile:

I read the doc :slight_smile: But to be sure, for now only the JS and Python SDKs are available. Which means I have to use the protocol doc if i’m using another language, right?

JavaScript SDK and Python SDK are the main Sdks, however, there are repositories for aepps, like the GitHub - aeternity/aepp-base: Base æpp

I don’t know what you are trying to do but that should cover most of the things.

The protocol is pretty simple, though. I created a simple bot without using the sdks that interacted with the testnet during a hackaton last weekend. But I only used it to send out spend transactions.

Possibly I woul like to build a native ios/android applications tha is using the aeternity network. Anyway i think the protocol documentation is enough for it :slight_smile:

I can write a quick gist guide on how to build a spend_tx in swift or elixir or erlang, if you need one. All I had to use were an rlp and base58check libraries and libsodium bindings.

Here’s an unnecessary convoluted guide I’ve just made for sending spend_tx from epoch: https://gist.github.com/syfgkjasdkn/7eba3cdb6a6d225b66e0fa5af27a3828.

If you plan your apps (ios in particular) as open source projects, I’d be interested in participating :slight_smile:. AigGap app doesn’t work for me for some reason (just hangs at startup).
