SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill enables developers to build Stellar blockchain applications using the Stellar JS SDK in JavaScript/TypeScript, providing access to core workflows such as accounts, payments, asset issuance, trustlines, DEX trading, Horizon queries, Stellar RPC interactions, streaming, and Soroban contract support.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Horizon & RPC access: interact with Horizon REST APIs and Soroban RPC for on-chain data and contract calls.
  • Transaction building & submission: create, sign, and submit transactions with multiple operations and memo support.
  • Asset management & trust: issue, trust, and manage assets, paths, and liquidity pools across the Stellar network.
  • Streaming & events: monitor payments, transactions, and effects in real time; supports account and ledger streams.
  • Use Case Examples: implement a payments workflow, asset issuance, or a simple Soroban contract interaction in a Node.js/Browser app.

Quick Start

Install the stellar-sdk package and run a minimal example to build a payment transaction.
