What problem does it solve?

This skill consolidates Metaplex protocols and tooling into a single, practical developer guide for Solana NFTs.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Core NFT development with MPL Core and Token Metadata
  • Bubblegum compressed NFTs for large collections and efficient storage
  • Candy Machine launches and Genesis token launches with MPL-Hybrid tooling
  • End-to-end samples covering creation, transfer, and collection management

Quick Start

Install the required Metaplex SDKs and run the provided examples under examples/ to mint Core NFTs, compressed NFTs, and launch Candy Machines. For quick experimentation, start with examples/core/create-nft.ts and examples/token-metadata/create-nft.ts, then explore bubblegum and genesis workflows.

FAQPage Schema
How do I mint compressed NFTs on Solana using Bubblegum for large collections?

To mint compressed NFTs on Solana, use the Bubblegum protocol integrated with Umi to enable efficient storage for large collections. This skill provides hands-on examples and ready-to-run code for Bubblegum compression workflows.

What is the difference between Solana Core NFTs and Token Metadata?

Solana Core NFTs utilize the MPL Core protocol for asset creation, while Token Metadata attaches standard metadata to existing SPL tokens. This guide covers both approaches with end-to-end samples for creation, transfer, and collection management.

How do I set up a Candy Machine launch on Solana?

Set up a Candy Machine launch on Solana by installing the required Metaplex SDKs and running the provided examples. This skill provides integration patterns and ready-to-run code for building and debugging Candy Machine workflows.

Does this Metaplex guide support Genesis token launches?

Yes, this Metaplex guide fully supports Genesis token launches using MPL-Hybrid tooling. It provides practical developer pipelines and hands-on examples to execute and debug Genesis workflows on the Solana blockchain.

What do I need to start building Solana NFT workflows with Umi?

To start building Solana NFT workflows with Umi, you need the @metaplex-foundation/umi-bundle-defaults and related Metaplex SDKs. Quick experimentation begins by running provided examples like creating Core NFTs and Token Metadata.

When should I use Bubblegum compression instead of standard Solana Core NFTs?

Use Bubblegum compression instead of standard Solana Core NFTs when managing large collections that require efficient on-chain storage. Bubblegum compresses asset data, whereas Core NFTs are better suited for standard creation and transfer pipelines.
