Wallet

The Vercre wallet is a cross-platform app with a Rust core and native UI integrated using Mozilla's Foreign Function Interface (FFI) library, UniFFI.

This library contains the wallet's core business logic and FFI bindings. Developers can use it to build their own UIs in Swift, Kotlin, or TypeScript. Alternatively, simply clone the Vercre Wallet for a quicker start.

Cross-platform with Crux

Vercre uses Crux with its built-in FFI support to simplify the creation of wallets.

Crux splits the application into a Core built in Rust (this library), containing the business logic, and a Shell, or UI, built in the platform native language (Swift, Kotlin, TypeScript), that provides the interface with the external world.

The Core : Shell interface is a Foreign Function Interface (FFI) where simple data structures are passed both ways between the Rust Core and [Swift|Kotlin|Typescript] Shell.

Learn how to use Crux in your project.

Getting Started

For an example of the library used as a Tauri application, see the Vercre App.

For an exmaple of the library published as a WebAssembly package and used as a web application, see the Vercre Web App

NPM Packages

The wallet is built as a WebAssembly package and published to NPM. To use it in your typescript project, use your favourite package manager to install it:

npm i --save @vercre/vercre-wallet

If using TypeScript you will also need to install some shared types that have been generated from the Rust crux application. These provide classes with serialization and deserialization compatibile with the FFI.

npm i --save @vercre/shared-types
