About The Project

The Crossmint SDK is a powerful collection of packages designed to simplify blockchain integration for developers. Our goal is to make Web3 development accessible without requiring extensive blockchain experience or cryptocurrency knowledge.

Why Crossmint?

• Quick Integration: All our tools have 5-min quickstarts
• Developer-First: Build end-to-end blockchain solutions without deep Web3 expertise
• Secure: Enterprise-grade security for all blockchain interactions
• Fiat-First: Enable users to participate in Web3 without cryptocurrency
• Free to Start: Start developing at no cost

Core Features

• NFT checkout: with credit card and cross-chain
• Authentication and session management
• Embedded wallets
• Verifiable credentials

Package Overview

Wallet SDK

• @crossmint/wallets-sdk: Universal Wallet SDK.

Client-Side Packages

• @crossmint/client-sdk-react-ui: React SDK, with UI components.

• @crossmint/client-sdk-react-native-ui: React Native SDK.

• @crossmint/client-sdk-auth: Headless typescript SDK for managing auth and user profiles.

• @crossmint/client-sdk-verifiable-credentials: Headless typescript SDK for Verifiable Credentials.

Demo Applications

• Wallets Quickstart): Create and interact with Crossmint wallets. This quickstart uses Crossmint Auth and uses your email as a signer for that wallet. Demo
• Hosted Checkout Quickstart): Allow your customers to buy NFTs with credit card and crypto payments, using Crossmint's hosted checkout. This quickstart provides a seamless integration for accepting payments in your dApp. Demo
• Fintech Quickstart): Create your own Fintech app in minutes using Crossmint wallets and onramp. Demo

Then, import the package you need.

ie. import { CrossmintWallet } from "@crossmint/wallets-sdk";

For more information on how to use the SDK, see the Crossmint SDK Documentation.

Building SDK locally

2. Rebuild the modified package:

# Inside the package directory
pnpm build

1. Reinstall dependencies in your project:

# From the root directory
pnpm install

1. Restart the demo application to see your changes

Publishing

SDK Reference Docs (Auto-Generated)

SDK reference pages on docs.crossmint.com are auto-generated from source code JSDoc annotations via TypeDoc. The pipeline:

1. Trigger: Push to main that touches watched paths (see .github/workflows/sdk-reference-docs-generate.yml)
2. Generate: TypeDoc + custom plugins produce MDX files for each package
3. Sync: A repository_dispatch sends the generated docs to crossbit-main, which opens a PR for review

Watched paths (changes here trigger doc generation):

• packages/wallets/src/**, packages/wallets/typedoc.json, packages/wallets/typedoc-custom-plugin.mjs
• packages/client/ui/react-ui/src/**, packages/client/ui/react-ui/scripts/**
• packages/client/ui/react-native/src/**, packages/client/ui/react-native/scripts/**
• packages/client/react-base/src/**

Manual trigger:

gh workflow run sdk-reference-docs-generate.yml -f packages="react-ui,react-native,node-wallets"

Key files:

Package	Config	Custom Plugin/Script
wallets-sdk	packages/wallets/typedoc.json	packages/wallets/typedoc-custom-plugin.mjs
react-ui	packages/client/ui/react-ui/typedoc.json	packages/client/ui/react-ui/scripts/generate-reference.mjs
react-native	packages/client/ui/react-native/typedoc.json	packages/client/ui/react-native/scripts/generate-reference.mjs
